Hull and Deck

When the new saildrive was installed it was obvious the antifoul had not attached and was peeling off in large patches. Whilst I could have slapped a coat of antifoul on and sailed away, most of it would have likely peeled off long before I got home.

So the hull was stripped of the offending products and thats when they found some areas needing repair. Once completed, gel-shield was applied followed by Micron Hard racing antifoul.

I believe the 150mm diameter rudder bearings are Jefa quality and there is no movement detected of the deep spade rudder which is great.

The non-slip deck is impressive. Even walking on the cabin top the grip is excellent.
