Sanding Marathon

For the weekend of March 27th and 28th, I took to the respirator and goggles and became intimately familiar with every undulation of the interior's visage (already being equally familiar with Froonie's hull and deck). For Saturday, the 27th, I was able to stretch my energy across a 10 and one half hour sanding session, and just about finished up prepping the interior for Interlux PreKote primer. The pictures are pretty self-explanatory (you just don't get the same wrist, elbow, and shoulder pain that I walked into the work week with). For the interested, I used 60-grit pads on a DeWalt VS Random Orbital sander - yeah, I know, but I was out of my pressure sensitive 5" disks for my Porter 7335. ....the following took 24 60-grit pads...





....ouch!
