Resplendent in her new white topsides, she still needs her blue antifouling to complete the hull makeover. The before and after photos below (quality of photographs aside) show the difference now the bulwark is painted rather than varnished. It accentuates the freeboard (height of the hull above the waterline) so I think it will make her look larger.

I think it’s a definite improvement. Below are some more shots from the week including the newly chromed hinges for the new cockpit table.
