During the week of August 9th, I further sanded and painted the hull and chain locker. I am painting the hull just in the forward area with Bilgekote because it will have a ceiling installation - wood strips running horizontal to the berth - the chain locker gets the Bilgekote naturally.
I included the picture below to give you a sense of what the interior looked like prior to the backing strip re-installation and subsequent painting.
So, on to the painting. Here is the forward berth hull sides and chain locker painted with Interlux Bilgekote. The bulkhead you see just aft of the chain locker will be covered with a mahogany panel, and will serve to "dress-up" the berth. You can see the backing strips epoxied to the hull, awaiting the ceiling strips...
