A couple of weeks ago I skinned the hull with 8 oz polyester weave from Dyson. Yeasterday it was time for the next step: Skinning the deck.
Foam floating support installed in the bow (and stern)
Skinning started using stainless steel staples. I also tested a new fabric with lower density, sold as "Polyester tent canvas". I learned the hard way that this fabric didn't heat shrink. I managed to get it tight, but not "drum tight". Anyway, I decided to go with it and learned a lesson.
Fabric trimmed and deck and hull coated with the firts two layers of paint. I am using a water based acrylic paint (Nordsjö One Super Tech). Very nice to work with.
The colour is classic gray with a touch of blue. It will look great a sunny day on the water.
