We're on a live feed - do you want to check in and supervise the paint job?!

It was pointed out to us recently by port neighbours and friends (big shout out to SY Mojo and SY Scorpio 2 crews XX) that one of Port Napoleon's webcams is pointed right at us!

You may or may not know that we have a full on face-lift underway - and this isn't superficial guys, A has gone deeeeep with this:

  • Grinding out every ding in the gel coat
  • Grinding out and replacing rotten wood in the rubbing strakes 
  • Filling and faring
  • Sanding
  • Triple wash down

And the transom and starboard sides are done and look A.W.E.S.O.M.E.

But you can't see them!!

So, here is an opportunity for those with simply too much time on their hands to watch as we spiffy up the port side to a beautifully finished finish.

We're still using our favourite non-yachtie Jotun paint, with a satin finish, and we have learned from experience on the best way to get this done just right:

  • Masking with a thick tape (to avoid roller slip errors)
  • Painting the hull grooves and edges prior to rolling
  • There's nothing for it - 3 coats are needed

So, check in on us on this link, and click on the Paris 3-4 image.


Despite the mistral currently blowing, it's a sunny day so we're going to get on it this afternoon.

There have been a couple of colour changes since you last saw us, so leave a message and let us know what you think!
