Here it is primed and sanded, ready for the gloss to go on. You can see the yellow Stronium epoxy primer on the steel keel, too - I didn't put a picture of that in the keel section of the blog.
This blog is a documentation of my restoration / finishing of the Calkins 54' sloop "Glory B". Please go to the 2010 listings, and start from the beginning.

Starting the hull painting
Got started on painting the hull today. We've been sanding for days, and today we started priming the area where there was some hull damage on the port side of the bow. (The damage was repaired before I bought her, but never painted)
After priming that a couple of times, sanding back to smooth between coats, repriming it, I got it to a state ready for priming the whole port side of the hull.
