I have two Chestnut Bob's Specials, this one is getting restored by me at home as it was in pretty good shape compared to my other Bob's. Today I applied the 3rd coat of Red paint.
I reused the old gunnels, they just need some sanding and varnish after the hull is finished. I taped them off and painted the underneath of the gunnels, those white blotches are a glazing material that covers imperfections. My canoe has alot of imperfections so I just go after the big stuff.

Almost finished with the foam brush.
