Broom Pisces Restoration

Post by broompisces »

I checked up on the restoration of my Broom Pisces today - I have asked my local yard to replace the deck and repair a lot of gel coat crazing.

They started on the deck today - it seems that the original deck was laid and then sealed at the edges using the hull's gelcoat. Some judicious use of a hacksaw blade along the edge of the deck where it butts the coaming released the gelcoat's grip somewhat.

Thereafter, they were able to remove the deck by using a slim piece of timber as a separator.

I attach some images of the work in progress.
