    Just an update I was able to finally get the resin on to the subdeck and decks of VDT. Stuffing tubes are resined in along with the rudder posts and battery tray brackets. Now jus a matter of time and weather to clean it up and reapply resin where needed.

    The weather cooperated and I was able to clean up the hull successfuly. I added another layer of resin over the main deck. Resin does stick to Sintra plastic after it dries and very hard to polish down. I need to buff the main deck smooth and level then it's on to marking out the hatch locations and the barbette locations.

    MOre work complete on VDT. The step down was sealed today and I was able to putty over the main decks and seal it with resin. Came out pretty nice.

    The step down came out well and is now sealed. The decks are sanded again. Just minor work now on the main decks to smooth it out more.
