Another weekend, another paint job

Deux has been on the hard for a year now and we are under pressure to get her back in the water. No engine or tanks have been fitted yet, but it would be nice to feel her float again (and not have to climb up and down the ladder). We spent the weekend applying a second coat of epoxy paint (such a messy job). Next we will apply an undercoat and lastly the antifoul. We still have some welding to be done on the deck and some woodwork to be attended to, but we are almost water tight and then its back into the water. We are planning to refit the engine and tanks while she is in the water but if necessary we will lift her back out.
