This blog follow up the re-build project of a very special sailing boat, a Hunter 19. This model became known after her participation in the 1972 transat as the smallest yacht ever in a solo transatlantic race.

March 23 and 24 - Removing old Antifulling from the hull - stripping and sanding
Since the underwater hull seems to have a lot of paint layers and I suspected that stripping most of the paint layer would take me a long time, I decided to try a hempel stripping chymical. It works well but timing is the key word. In the first experience I took too long time between product aplication and stripping so paint was to dry to be removed. Finally I tunned the timing to more or less one square meter per aplication.
