Once again we apologize for the silence through this past month, but we’ve still just been keeping our heads down in the hopes of getting paint on shortly. The good news is, about 80% of our areas have their last coat of final primer on, or are about to get them tomorrow!
Most of our remaining work is in the bridge deck, and luckily the settees will be covered, so they won’t need a lot of work, and the galley is mostly cabinet doors, so there isn’t much space in that area which needs sanding/priming.
Now that we’re almost done with the interior work, we thought we’d break down all the sanding tools we’ve used to get to this point. Some of them I am so happy that I haven’t seen in months and months, because they are what we used to prep fiberglass surfaces.
Others are tricks that we’ve just happened upon in the past 4-12 months, and would have saved us SO MUCH TIME had we used them as soon as the first coats of fairing compound went on.
I just wanted to pop this up right now, but if you’re interested in each of the tools we show here, I should have links up to them tonight or tomorrow.
Enjoy!
Much love,
Jessica, Matt & Georgie

MJ Sailing
Sailing the world to see the world! We're a couple of high school sweethearts in our late 30's that have been on the move for 9 years; creating videos of the ups, the downs, our triumphs and our trials. After circumnavigating the North Atlantic in our last boat Serendipity, (1989 Sabre Targa 34), we took on a 2 year complete refit of our new boat Elements of Life - a custom aluminum 37' monohull. After sailing her to the Arctic, we sold her in 2020 to begin our newest project of building a 42 ft catamaran.
