Progress is moving quickly! Managed to get the keel in for sandblasting already.

Next step I will fair it with compound and cover it with a couple coats of epoxy resin before priming it and antifouling it.

Here is the keel post sandblasting and with a barrier coat on.


Ive realised I made a mistake on the anti foul as well as I've gone over the re-coat time.  I think I'll leave her with 1 coat of antifoul for now and in the winter take her back out of the water and get her bottom half sandblasted so all the old layers of paint are off.  The guy who did the keel was happy to get that done.
