10/2/10: Replacing Starboard Railing and Peeling Up Line-X

[ida may]

Tom Evans, Frank Antes, and Elbert, David, and Gordon Gladden work on a beautiful fall day at Scott's Cove on the Skipjack Ida May. We finally replaced some of the rotten railing on the starboard side of the boat, but we have much more to do. Tom and David blistered their hands prying up the thick, plastic-like coat of Line-X on the deck. The Line-X was a failed experiment to preserve the deck and won't be reapplied.
