Next week or so weather forecast is dry and warm. Ideal for oiling brightwork and repaining the hull. Painting was last carried out two or three years ago so it’s about time. Toplac is a one part paint that’s fine for day boats and since Tarka lives mainly on a trailer the bottom will be painted black again no need for antifoul.
The order of works is as follows
- Brightwork, toe rails, deck fittings, coaming, rubbing strikes, mast, spars, wooden parts of cockpit and washboards danish / teak oil
- Deck, light grey anti slip paint
- Sides toplac colour TBD
- Boot line white toplac
- Bottom black toplac
