Varnish Time
Here in northwest Florida we have been blessed with day after day of near-perfect weather. I've been trying to take advantage of the trend, using each day to apply another coat of Interlux Schooner 96 to Alana's woodwork. One really could not ask for a finer week of varnishing weather - light winds and temperatures in the mid-sixties. This weekend is forecast to be cold, so to now is the time to get things done.
In addition to the woodwork, I've been paying some attention to the steering pedestal. Two screws twisted off and had to be drilled out during disassembly, leaving large holes to be. filled with JB Weld, JB Weld I'll now be drilling and tapping to accept new machine screws. This weekend, while Jessica's flying her helicopter to St. Augustine and back, I'll be sanding and painting the pedestal, getting it ready to go back in the boat

I'm glad you're having some good weather. I'm trying not to be bitter about it as I bundle up the munchkins to wait for the bus. :-)
