SSShhhhsssshhhhh!!!!!! Don't tell her.....! :)

 

The fact that there hasn't been many pictures of Kathy on this blog is by design. HER design!

 

She has been sanding her butt off inside the boat and now painting this week as we get close to completion...but DON'T tell her I posted this picture! She'll KILL me! :)

 

talk about a new hair color!!!!

 

 

I've been varnishing a ton, but haven't had the chance to take any pictures yet, so I'll get those on soon as I can.

 

"Spirit of Jessica" is coming together quickly now. We should get our registration numbers, etc back from the sign shop this week. From there, it's mostly reassembly work and LOTS of little details. More pix soon!

 

Have a GREAT weekend!

 

da Pirate and da Sawdusty Babe!!



Work Hard, Play Harder!!!!

 

I found a new sign that sez it all......!!

 

 

We have completed painting the outside of "Spirit of Jessica" and more varnish is next. Although it's not quite ready to reassemble yet, I couldn't resist another "test fit" session!

 

 

 

 

Time to get back to WORK, so I can play HARDER very soon!!! :)

 

Sail On!

Gawd!!! EVERYTHING is a Corner!!!!!

 

I haven't had much to show you lately since I've been back to the sandpaper AGAIN!!!

 

Sand this, prime that, re-sand this, re-prime that!! Wash, Rinse, REPEAT!!!

 

This is absolutely CRAZY!

...and EVERYTHING on a boat is a corner!!

 

 

I'm really not whining, REALLY! This boat has many times been filled with tedious projects, all of which I had anticipated. And any time I get tired of it all, I remind myself that yes, I could've bought a small boat that looked just like everyone else's.

But instead, Kathy and I are about to finish a great little pirate ship that we can be proud of every time we're on the water!!!

...and that's VERY KEWL!!!

Sail on,

Pirate
