Hi there friends . . . well, here's what Connie and I have been up to.
Sanding, taping and painting on Gypsy Rose.
We are still planning on having her in the water,
sometime in June.
Check out these photos.
Here I am sanding the hull.
She needed it all over, deck, hull and bottom.
So far we have the deck and hull finished.
The sun was so bright in this shot that the colors washed out,
but maybe you can tell,
that we are replacing the pink deck with a gray.
It has a green tint in it and I think in looks so much better.
We think that the pink color was a result
of the sun fading out a beige color.
Here's Connie painting the edge of the hull a deep gloss green.

ReplyDeleteIt is hard to believe how much work you two have completed on Gypsy Rose. She is looking mighty fine for an old dame! Thanks for coming over to gaze upon my thrifty thrills! Do you need a cane or two?

ReplyDeleteYour boat looks lovely! I have come here via Connie's page as I have a special interest in boats….mostly slightly larger ones, but yours looks very very pretty. You are doing a lovely job!
ReplyDeleteShe looked renewed and full of life! I think Gypsy Rose deserves a special makeover since it looked like she’d been sailing the whole continent the entire year! Haha! It’s really a job well done!
