7-23.

One more coat to go!  (and the gunnels).  This afternoon we sanded for the last coat, but didn't have time to paint, so we'll put the last coat on and start the gunnels this coming weekend. 


In between painting, we realized we needed to start getting everything else ready.  So we lashed the sails onto the boom and lug, attached the tiller extension to the tilller, attached the pintles and cam cleat to the rudder stock, and whipped the uphaul for the rudder.





I just want to say again that whipping is really fun.  It is strangely satisfying.  I wish I had more ropes that needed whipping.
