Just about ready for another coat of primer.  I hope it will be the last but don't know for sure.

Thanks for taking a look and hitting the like button.

 

I've applied the next coat of primer and I also patched up that little hole between the stern post and transom.   Obviously I need to do more filling and sanding around there once the glue dries.

 

Looks like I still have a few small spots elsewhere on the hull that I want to add some filler to, and then another round of sanding and priming.   So far I've just used 120 and 320 to sand it.  I think this time I'll go to a higher grit and try to get down to a final smoothness, then one last (I hope) coat of primer).

 

I am still thinking white or off white top sides and green or greenish blue hull but I have not settled on anything 100%.  I am almost ready for that but should determine what other parts, like the rudder and rudder post, should be painted at the same time.

 

And pay no attention to the clock in the background, I obviously don't.  I took those first two pictures around 9am on April 24, not last Friday night 😆

Very nice work, the hull's coming along great!
