Batten down Varnish the Hatches!!


After letting the polysulphide caulk cure a good long time, I've put the first 2 coats of varnish on the main hatch. Very exciting!

The teak used on the hatch is much more golden in color than the teak of the coamings and railings leading us to believe it is a different variety of teak. Teak at the time of the boat's building would have come from Indonesia or Burma, so presumably the teak used on the boat could be a mixture of both.
