This is what we woke up to this morning. Rain.... ok... we can deal with that. We've been dealing with that for 3 months. Gusts to 60mph.... not so good.
The wind has been blowing like crazy all day, with recorded gusts of over 65mph. Dave had to decide whether to leave the cover up or take it down before it totally destroyed itself. By lunchtime he had the guys cutting away all of the plastic in the hopes that the wind would just blow through the "skeleton" and not fall in a heap on and around the boat. The wind was blowing so hard that the 2x4 supports were breaking in half. He definitely made the right decision.
So.... what's next? We'll be removing the rest of the plastic and tarps over the next day or two, then we'll be throwing another large plastic sheet back over the top. We need to get all of the wet sand off of the deck, finish sandblasting and finish getting the first coat of paint on the deck. Once all of that is finished, we can start spraying on the remaining coats of paint.
We are so close, yet so far away.....
