BayAreaSailingSchool > Outside view, starboard side, rotten wood removed, wave blocker removed area sanded.
BayAreaSailingSchool > When the wood of the wave blocker was pressed on water acutally seeped out.  This was not going to dry out.  We decide to replace the entire area.  We can rebuild it!!!
BayAreaSailingSchool > A view from inside the cockpit of the rotten wood of the coaming removed.
BayAreaSailingSchool > The starboard side presents more of a concern.  The leak has allowed the wood on the wave blocker and the cockpit coaming to become rotten.  The pieces of wood above were removed using only fingers; thus very soft, too soft, we decide.
BayAreaSailingSchool > Finally we were done with most of the keel and only had the rudder to chip away on!  Making progress.
BayAreaSailingSchool > After she was delivered we were lucky enough to move her into the truck bay at Stefan's workplace, Aquadrill.  Our first project was to remove the bottom paint.
BayAreaSailingSchool > But before we rebuild it, we must remove it!!!!  Arrrrrggghhhh!
