almost there !!! just a few spots needed doing.. The long white line from the bow is just the reflection from the drying varnish .

so grey primer rubbed down, then I masked off any PE and where any PE will go then sprayed the hull with a high build filler primer-- and yes-- rubbed it down again--- now to give it a thick coat of varnish --then a fine rub down which 'should ' just leave a few spots and areas to tidy up---well that's the plan, and we all know what happens to a plan 😜

For those of you following in our footsteps of building this kit here is an idea of what slack you have with materials from first and second planking-- The lower strips are what I had left over from 1st planking and the upper from second planking... so enough for you to make mistakes or re-do bits

10 out of 10 for perseverance--- going to be a great talking point when finished (i guess it is already) when people visit you

Nice!!
One luxury that Amati provide over the "Partwork" is the Portlight/Stern Grab Handle PE.
Enjoy the filling & sanding!! 🙂
Cheers and Regards,
Harry.
