GIS update.
Minus six screws the hull is finished. It isn't the best paint job in the world, some areas are better than others, but it mostly looks fine from a distance and will hopefully be serviceable.
The plan is to launch the boat in the next couple of weeks (after the paint has cured) and use it as a row boat while I finish of the mast, centerboard, boom, yard etc etc. I have some things to finish up on the dock in the mean time, for storing the boat and for getting it in and out of the water.
All in all a big milestone after 3 years of "part time" work. I'm really looking forward to getting out on the water in it, but hope I can get a sail on it in the near future. Some pics below, full album here.
