Varnish is very nice overall. Decks, transom and interior brightwork is quite nice. (The dashboard has severalsmall runsin the varnish, and could use a light sanding and top coat.) The mediumblue hull paint was repaintedlast Winter with Interlux medium blue Brightsides.. The two small side windows in the windshieldwere replaced with newsafety glass in 2014.Two new stainless vertical trim stripswere fittedwhere the aft hull meets the transom. New bottom paint applied in January 2014. Newwhite boot stripe also added in Winter of 2014. The stem was replaced with a laminated section. This classic Lyman will be ready to go and show.
