Used Boat Blisters and Hydrolysis - Part 4

On Friday, Tom was back at our used trawler, Patricia Ann, this time to finish up the peeling of her hull. There were a few spots that he could not get to with the peeler so he had to use a smaller rotary grinder. I suppose he was there about 4 hours. I couldn't talk to him as he was inside the enclosure.

The enclosure is used to control the dust.

In addition, moisture readings were also taken before the hull was pressure washed.

We are now beginning the 4th week of drying and the moisture content is dropping, some 15-20% below the original readings in some places. I am trying not to get too excited as you can't rush the process. I am still anticipating her being on the hill until at least mid August.

Stay tuned.
