Here an update on our current winter projects. Nothing like what
Harry is doing with Mirage, but baby steps... ;)
Partial Sole Refinish.
After the extended discussions of everything from Varnish to cows, I
though I would share the result of our partial sole refinish
project. Most of the sole on Alera looked great, except for one
section at the bottom of the steps down into the main cabin. Lynn
pulled that section and did most of the work, including the selection
of the Deft Polyurethane Semi Gloss finish. Lynn has always handled
the bright work on Jubilee (our former 72 MK1). And is now started to
work her magic on Alera. We did 4 coats and it looks like it will
match up with the existing finish perfectly.

For my part I am in the process of putting a sweet Boatleather cover,
with padding, on the 48" Edson wheel. In cold weather the bare metal
would just leach the heat from my fingers, so this will be a welcome
upgrade. I rigged a bicycle stand to hold the wheel so I can do it
in the house. It is a tedious job, and I'm about 1/2 done so far. I
plan on finishing it up during the big game today.
Here's how it looks so far -
