 This is the winning color idea, black hull, with gold stripe, blue eye, red decks and red sail.


Below you can see Goblin is getting all the attention this afternoon.   Two prepping the hull, stripping and sanding.  Rob finished grinding the interior in prep for the new forward bulkheads, glassed in the new bulkheads below the cockpit covers, bilge paint is drying.  He tied in the new bigger glassed cockpit drains into the new bulkhead supports and epoxy/glassed in.  I'll get good before/during and after shots posted by the end of the week.

Serious work started New Years Eve 2012!
========================================
Ok, it's started.  Rob Parish traded some computer advice/equipment for time in his heated shop at the end of 2011...

Week 1 project list (12/31/2011)

All bulkheads, drains and rot removed!
New bulkheads, new drains in place





Now Rob has taken on the big steps to making Goblin seaworthy and beautiful.  The forward raking unstayed mast will be supported by new forward bulkheads and a wide mast step of hard exotic wood.


A crew is starting on the hull surface, removing paint and crud.


Previous name of the boat was uncovered just ahead of the stern on the starboard side.  HMS RELENTLESS, everyone stopped for a moment and all agreed, she's not relentless, she's a beautiful Goblin.
New list for Week 2 (January 9th 2012)
