Making a start on repairing the long stargazing on the Blue Stripe on this Hardy

Having ground back the surface gelcoat to remove the stargazing out of the gelcoat it was time line dermal the stargazing out of the lower level to that rid of any lower level stargazing.

Once that was done then, it was time to start to fill up the dermal-ed lines to level the lines up with new Oxford blue gelcoat 

The stargazing was a very long length


The length was from ahead of the cabin window to as far back as the porthole in the toilet compartment, so it is a long stargaze.


It is going to take a bit of time to fill up the stargazing with gelcoat, however, as we fill the stargazing up, we will then gelcoat the whole area from the forward end of the stargaze to the aft end and from the wooden fender rail to the rudder fendering then sand and compound the whole of the blue stripe to its original colour.
