Keeping her pretty

Liberty is a wooden boat in every aspect except her hull, which is heavily made of fiberglass. There is lots and lots of teak above and below. I love bright varnished teak trim on a boat, but periodically it needs to be re-varnished. I'm in the process of redoing all the teak and hope to be finished by the end of June.
Unfortunately the old varnish has to be removed. The pain of scraping and sanding is the price paid for the pleasure of brushing on a beautiful new coat.
