Speed boat restoration of the decks, first get girt of the old varnish and then sand back the surface so it can be re-veneered.

The speed boat is back in the workshop, this time to have the deck re-veneered with new mahogany veneer 


Getting girt of the old varnish with a heat gun on the old varnish which is  still on the side decks 


Half the port side deck varnish removed 


The whole of the port side old varnish removed and now the time for the sander to get girt of the last of the varnish on the surface of the deck


The port side sanded back to the bare wood, just a bit of filling to fair up the deck areas where bits of veneer is missing before relaying a fresh veneer over the top of the old deck.
