Stripping and sanding

I took advantage of some nice weather to spend an afternoon in the garden with my boat, a chisel and some sandpaper. The bonus was that I could work on the boat while still looking after the kids.

I removed the old keelstrip and investigated the leak in the front compartment. Some cleaning up around the front hatch revealed that the flange is broken and is detached from the deck at several points.
The chisel got blunted pretty quickly. The grindstone got some use.
