Default Re: 20 MA project continues

Well after no activity on the boat since we got the place in the Keys bad weather and just plain lazy I am going to go at it again ....So here's were I'm at

I have the Console and all the hatches ready for paint, I have the outside and bottom of the hull sanded and ready to finish primer. Now the inside I have most sanded but plan to go over the whole inside incase I missed some place, but before I need to finish these 2 spots

The rear hads a soft spot so I took out the rotted wood and relace it and I did save the skin to replace it back

The front deck also had a larger soft spot here I took out the rotten wood and replace it with 4x4 pieces covered with glass.

This has taken me a lot longer than what I thought

Plan it to attack these 2 areas this week and continue to sand (Did I tell you I HATE SANDING!!!)
and hopefully start the paint sometime next week.
NOw after the glass what would be the best filler to make it as smooth as possible. Although both will be an area that the non skid may help hide my amature results

Now I do have some damage to the 2 channels that go somewhat in the middle of the deck from the console back and I was thinking it may be easier to not try to make it look original and glass it over...Opinions?

Any contructive critique is encoraged!!!
