All the teak on the deck has been taken down to bare wood (using a head gun and scraper), screw hols were plugged with dowels, cracks were filled with epoxy and sawdust, and ten coats of Man-O-War glossy varnish has been applied. Once we splash the boat (and are away from the dust of the work yard) we will sand the brightwork and apply a couple more coats of varnish.
Aegir-Ran Moved to the Work Yard
We arrived in San Carlos on the auspicious date of 2-22-22 and the next day arranged to move our boat from dry storage to the work yard at Marina Seca to begin the first phases of its refit. We spent the rest of the day emptying the forward cabin and parts of the main cabin. The previous owner had left behind all of their possessions, including their clothes.
The Adventure Begins
Our Alejuela 38 has been purchased and is currently on the hard in San Carlos, Mexico.
