Flipped back over.
Controversial I know but we've primed & antifoul'ed the whole underside.
It'll be easy enough to take off again in the new lucky owner wants to re-gel or even paint.

And here she is.
Let's hope it's dry in time... The tube is getting glued back on tonight.

So the tube went back on Tuesday night; and the deck was flo-coated yesterday... 
Yes the middle bit has been missed out on purpose...

Back on this tomorrow; clean the tubes up to bring them back to their former glory.
The hull & tubes are then ready for a ribnet'er to take on for a home finish project with or without the trailer.
If it's still here in a few months I'll probably finish it off myself.

Nothing special. Roller and/or brush.
The central (dark grey) section has sand in it for Non-slip so brush applied as uniformly as possible.

Yes sorry I missed you (again).
Re: ribtec; I had offered it to "scullyman" @ £1000 but he's sorted now with a tornado.
It really ought to be £1000 as hull & tubes or £1500 with the snipe trailer. That's the same offer I made to scullyman and given the work that's gone into it seams a fair price, plus the trailer would probably fetch £700 on ebay but I appreciate for most it'll be a necessity.
Watch this space for a "for sale" ad !!

Not quite finished yet but still available.
£1000 is for bare hull & tubes.
A Frame needs work but you can have it FOC to be honest.
Console isn't finished & it's not included. It will be for sale but not till it's finished !!

Well didn't find time this week for that.
Here they are with a quick wash. They need a proper clean and some detailing. Not perfect but pretty good for the age. No patches at all either.

Brilliant !
We did discuss it as it happens. But like all projects there has to be a cut off, and I've no idea who'll own this boat and what console will end up in it.

How wide is the flat bit of the deck? I wonder if it could cope with side by side jockey seats?
