Back aboard Winterlude!  We planned to spend our first 5 1/2 days getting the boat liveable and then sailable.  But our diver doesn't have Winterlude scheduled for an every other month bottom job (and prop cleaning) until November 12 ... seems like forever.  In the meantime, I got diverted by teak ... again.  After 2 days back, the boat was pretty liveable and the sails were even back on.  So I get the brilliant idea that the caprail teaks still looks fabulous, but needs another couple coats to keep it that way.  And the grab rails, cabin top trim and companionway and hatch boards are FILLED with mold spots. They're still Cetol left over from a couple years ago, so wouldn't it be a great idea to strip them ALL and restore them with varnish like we did the cap rail.  I could hear David groan.  So we spent two days stripping, brightning, sanding and now varnishing.  But it's looking good so far with 2 sealer coats and one coat of Flagship varnish.  Only 5 more coats to go on the cabintop, grabrails and companionway ... and only one coat to go on the caprail.  And then we should be good to continue getting the boat ready to sail!   That will make David happy!  :)
