It's hard to believe that 8 months have gone by since I posted the last blog! This mean it's been 8 months since we have actively worked on The Runner. We had a few issues to sort through. The major issue was to design a means of tilting the boat a further 20 degrees so we could have easier access to the underside of the hull. Success. Paul's idea worked so we were able to start work again.
By the end of June 2013 we had stripped the paint from the right side of the boat and had experimented with sanding to see the condition of the wood. It couldn't have been a better outcome. The wood is just beautiful.
