28. Sanded for 1st Time

Since I last checked in the hull to deck seam on the right has been taped and finished. Did some initial clean up around the hatch opening then got to sanding. Used my random orbit palm sander. Did a great job. Practiced a little on some scraps to get used to handling the sander on this somewhat delicate plywood. Would be extremely easy to take too much off. Sanded the deck then the hull. Once the hull was done flipped her over and realized I babied the deck too much so another evening of sanding and vacuuming sawdust is in order. The bottom pics shows how well the stern shaped up. I was worried about this area as the sides extended a good deal past the transom. But about 2 seconds of sanding and it was beautiful! In very bottom pic you can see me smiling! Mo
