Grand Banks 42 Classic Refit - Brightwork

Its been a long hard slog, but the superstructure of my boat is almost complete now. Ive still got the floor of the top deck to paint, and a few more hand rails to go on, but Im really pleased with the paint finish, a Toplac from International in an Ivory, it blends in nicely with all the new Teak trims.

There were 10 coats of paint on the front coachroof, luckily the surface flattened back well for the new International. I replaced the 10mm Perspex on the escape hatch for 'clear' so you can see the stars! 

Tons of new Burmese Teak from Tim Collin



Parki Teak floors throughout all cabins. 
Dust, and more dust..

Six coats of varnish on the steps with new tread covers. Mast and rigging all completely refurbished. 

New deck quadrants in Burmese Teak, handrails all refurbished with 6 coast of  Ravilakk. Shore power cover refurbished. 

New cleats for the Derek. 



Re-varnished and painted the nav light boxes. New downlights for the deck



Repainted the whole upper deck, sanded back and teak oiled all trims and varnished the wheel. 

Just the deck paint to go... thinking light grey with margins...seat boxes totally refurbished... lots of rot removed - cushions refurbished and cleaned! 

Some good before and after shots...
