Upgraded cockpit locker lid to be airtight and not let cold moist air inside.
Extra latch for cockpit locker
Refinished the companionway stairs
The time has come to bring the stairs up to new standard. The bastard painters I hired back in 2017 painted the tops of steps with nonskid exterior paint (for the interior stairs!). And of course that is exactly where beautiful teak is supposed to go. Had to be fixed.
Started by sanding down that crap
After spray-painting the sanded stairs back to uniform white, I turned my attention to teak, which was sanded, stained, and varnished
Then, the teak was mounted with bungs and final coat of varnish added on top.
Finally, I put in two new latches to secure the steps in place.
Super happy with the result!
Finished sanding doors
Finally finished removing all the ugly plastic veneer from the teak doors. Found beautiful wood grain underneath. Dry fit the folding door and all its latches. Will need to patch old holes with teak bangs and then they will be ready to bleach, stain, and varnish.
