Centreboard repairs continue

Between Spark's Centreboard in bad but serviceable condition and my own need towards perfection, it was inevitable that I would be doing some work here. So far I have completely reinforced the "handle" and the trailing edge where it smacks up against the hull when raised. Having done this with epoxy and glassfibre, I spent part of the morning sanding it all smooth before slathering the entire board in epoxy.

Tomorrow I sand again and then a bit of pre-kote primer before I can paint the entire thing in Kirby's "Ivory" and installing it back into Spark.

My new hardware I ordered from the UK has arrived as well. This includes a new bolt with rubber lined washers to keep the water where it belongs, a bump stop at the top of the centreboard case, and a new "brake" to stop the board where I want it.
