Wednesday afternoon after 16 hours of board filing the purple fairing compound.
Heres the boat Wednesday night after an entire day of board filing. Fairing compound was spread onto the low spots. This may look like we have a lot of lows, but we are being extremely fussy here...
After weeks of fairing, filling, and fairing, its finally time to use a batten to see how close we are. Still some lows to fill, and we are being very picky...
Here is the boat nearly completely fair. After this, Brendan and Dave will skreet on more fairing compound to the low spots. This should be the last time.
