Another job from last year the roof of this classic motor cruiser was attacked by water and was very soft. The owner wanted to just inject the soft areas with epoxy resin which I wasn't happy about doing so he said he'd cut the top off and so glad he did as the sandwich core was shot!! Once all core had been removed new balsa core was installed and the top bonded back on once it was filled and faired the flybridge was bonded on (i hadn't documented the work I did to this but all instrument holes filled so it was a blank canvas & over 60 screw holes filled and faired along with the crazing) the owner wanted no screw holes hence bonding everything together as one all rubbing strake and metal capping around the cabin removed, fibreglassed then filled and faired along with all crazing,holes & damage around the deck which was Major and all ready for painting for the new season.

This Swan sailing yacht was in for a total make over inside and out and while sitting in a nice warm workshop the owner noticed water running out from behind the previous repairs under the waterline so I was tasked with removing all previous repairs and found that the original lay up was riddled with air voids and dry glass so once removed down to sound material I proceeded to apply 6 layers of biaxial cloth & epoxy pro-set resin to all repaired areas then a fill and fair,gel seal and antifoul which were completed by Suffolk Yacht Harbour.
