The Black & Tan

On Sunday we tackled the transom and interior. First Mack trimmed all the rib stems and then notched out the motor well. While he sanded out the interior I glassed the transom with 6oz glass fabric and we cut it to fit. Then we coated the entire interior with 105/205 epoxy using rollers and trimming and finishing with brushes. While we waited for it to cure we took Bross to the river to catch some trout....

quick update, progress is slowing as we wait for good weather to finish our 2nd and 3rd coats of epoxy. at this point, the interior has had its second coat, and the exterior gunnels were cut, planed and added from leftover Sapelle stock from the interior chines.

Just a few photos this week, rain has been slowing us down. We've added another coat of epoxy inside and out, and begun sanding and prep for the paint. The transom has been detailed as well with some nice sapelle, which was cut, biscuited and epoxied to the doug fir transom.
