Fillets and Fairing (and filleting, and fairing, etc)

Our Gannet hull is getting patched up, filleted, and faired. It’s taking a few rounds of applying fillets and patching holes, sanding them smooth, and then coming back to refill some shrunken bits. It’s coming along nicely though, and getting fairer and smoother each time! We’re nearly ready for a couple of sealer coats on the exterior.

The mast has been rounded and smoothed, and looking good! We need to figure out the arrangement at the head of the mast for the halyards and shrouds before we start applying varnish.

We’ve given the Vogler a good cleaning, new bottom paint, and a couple of coats of varnish.

We’re getting lots of people out sailing in our boats, with some really nice conditions – so great to have access to these beautiful boats, and introducing people to them!
