Mads completes the hull fairing process on Athena, a 1987 Warrior 38, after approximately 100 hours of labor.0:50 To prepare for painting, he cleans the hull with water, degreaser soap, and a Scotch-Brite pad, avoiding solvents that could contaminate the fairing compound.8:38 He applies a single coat of Interprime 820 epoxy primer using mohair rollers, as foam rollers disintegrated upon contact with the product.12:10 He plans to apply five additional coats of primer, followed by undercoat and Perfection Pro paint, as weather permits.12:37
Simultaneously, he rebuilds the steering pedestal, reusing the original aluminum column while replacing the brake housing and bearings.2:41 He seals the pedestal base and mounting bolts in the cockpit using butyl tape, tightening the fasteners in stages to ensure a watertight seal.13:06 He also patches three old holes in the hull by grinding a bevel and laying up fiberglass on the interior.14:55 The project concludes with the transition of the hull fairing task to the completed section of his project management board.15:33
