Olo of the Sun, wet sanding and polishing continued

Day two hand sanding the 19 footer: 120 grit, 150 grit,180 grit, 240 grit and 280 grit, only three more to go.



All sanding is done fore and aft in the direction of the water flow.

Another four and a half hours of hand sanding to fair the bottom of the Olo of the Sun, deck and rail facets, that part of the job is now about half done.

Hand sanding imparts an energy to the wooden surfboard, and is good exercise.



I'm getting used to the 19 foot size, and was surprised when I went up to the shop today and the 12 footers looked like shortboards.
