I got some more work done.
(not pictured) I put the final coat of white on the sides of the hull. Next I'll do the boot stripe and then the bottom.
I put the rest of the rub rails on and touched up a little of the green paint where I misjudged how much the rail would cover.
I then pulled all of the canvas that came with the boat out of the basement. I haven't really looked at it. I was fully expecting it to be completely unusable. I was wrong. The main top was dirty, but fully intact. I hit it with a hose and a little elbow grease, and it's nearly good enough to use as is. It started out almost battleship gray, and turned out like this...
(not pictured)The top that goes from the main top to the stern was in perfect shape. I was totally surprised. I hosed off the dust, and it was good to go. The side curtains may need a little more work. The plastic windows are creased from being rolled up for so long and there are rust stains on the canvas. So they'll need more cleaning.
