Mirror Progress

It's been a long time coming but there has been some progress on the Mirror Dinghy.   The outside of the hull had been previously stripped of paint as best as I could get it without going through the outer ply or taped seams.  
The artful Roger had supplied me with some special epoxy which he'd used to seal voids in the hull of his Hurley 24/70.  I was able to use this to coat most of the outer hull of the dinghy.  This has really helped to soak into the wood and seal it prior to the undercoat.  I applied two coats of undercoat, flatting back and filling gauges and fairing in between the coats. Then finally a coat of Black Toplac was applied.. I wouldn't have chosen Black but it was available cheap from a family member who bought it for an abandoned project... thanks Adam, it's gone to good use.

All that's left to do is varnish the bare wood, varnish also came from Adam,  and source any parts which are missing... Then it needs a name.   In the mix at the moment are... 'The flying Coal Scuttle'  'Baby Bella'  'Nero Porco' and 'Black Pearl'... other suggestions welcome :o)
