Window Templates

The boat is looking better each week.  Here is a picture before the gelcoating. The topsides are buffed out and the foredeck patch is in position and body worked smooth.  I have my own custom paint named for me; Guard Grey Andrew Olseene...Hopefully it matches up.

The mast base is installed and the paper plotted window templates are being fitted.  I traced the existing window cutouts on paper and then digitized it on the inspection rock at work with the faro arm.  I can tell the windows will be a time consuming process to do it right but it will be well worth the patience.

Hi Andrew
Nice to see someone working on Blizzard. We have a Ross 780 here in New Zealand and have been doing a similar refit as you have. Check out our progress here
