Farley Mowatt’s "Boat, Who Would Not Float."
Very nice Formosa 51 / Hudson Force 50...
Sitting looking all that needs to be done... House flooded a while back. This triggered a lot more remodel than just the damaged floor.. Boat work has been put on hold for house work.
New tank for Paradise!
Once the teak was all removed and deck cleaned up, the top layer of fiberglass is cut off and rotten core scraped out. Then the lower layer of glass is sanded with 40 grit and new marine ply epoxied in place. The ply was cut using the top layer I cut off as a template. Next up, the top layer will get epoxied back on, then all the seams get glassed using 4 or 6" fiberglass tape.

Our "secret" spot on the river. A nice private little spot with natural barriers to keep the doggies from wandering off, or others wandering in.
Winter mode activated! Hardtop installed until warmer days return. The hardtop is so much warmer, dryer and quieter than the soft top! #triumph #tr6 #dailydriven #cars #classiccar #petrolicious #drivetastefully
Making new chainplates for Paradise.
Another step closer on the cockpit seat/propane locker.
