oh

i'm tony this is the badger we're

building a cruising sailboat

and this week a lot of concentration on

the four deck area getting four deck

finished off i've done a bit of work up

there before but

it's been all about finishing off and

i'm stood right here

first thing two fair looks

set in there um wanted to get them in

there get a few things on before i

finish the paint work so

those job was to set those fairleads in

the bulwarks

[Applause]

[Applause]

um

um look nice i think i'm happy with

those

and then there's an area here

that was okay there were just cables out

of the way this area here is a bit

strange the way these forwards come

forwards and then they ended at my bow

sprint bow roller fitting

um and there was a sort of gap there

that i wasn't happy about so i i

decided to make up these stainless

brackets bent here

to cover up that gap put some epoxy

filler in behind there so so that

end of that bulwark is completely sealed

and

closed off and i'm pleased with that

also underneath here filled under there

so it's all completely sealed unit now

and these also

bolted through the ball works bolted

through the stainless barrel fitting

makes it all a very solid job and

they've come out well

those are those

paintwork up here

masked up around about got

another couple of coats of gloss on and

a bit on before but i put

another two or three coats of gloss on

and

the non-slip panels so you can stand

here

and work on on the before deck if need

be

and that is now sealed up there's a

little bit of a clean up here a bit more

varnish on the bell sprit

tidy up there but it's basically done

now we're going to put a going to put a

metal

strip around the top of this anchor

chain box so the anchor chain can run

over there without damaging the wood

also will seal the end grain of that

plier that's sticking up there got some

hardwood strips to run around the top of

the ball works here

probably be getting to those fairly soon

that's where we are this week
