4 Coats of Cetol Done - 3 To Go

The Kismet beautification project is going along on schedule. The biggest job is refinishing the teak. We have gotten it down to 3 hours to do one coat. We do it early in the morning before the sun heats up too much - it has been in the 90s this week. We have applied 4 coats of Cetol Natural and we will cover that with 3 coats of Cetol Gloss. Jim is also doing engine maintenance. Today he changed the antifreeze, and yesterday adjusted the valves. He has to replace the raw water pump as well. We are having fun here too...a couple of nights ago we were invited to dinner for 8 by an English couple here that is preparing their boat to sail the world; Jenny & Tony. They prepared quiche, salad, chicken salad, cole slaw, potatoes,& wine. Sailcraft also has a swimming pool - an afternoon swim has been great! Hopefully, we will be done by June 2nd.
