Varnish refresh, Part 1

We decided to give the wood in the cockpit some love. The companionway hatch, mahagony trim pieces and handles were taken home, carefully sanded and treated with 5 coats of fresh Epifanes varnish.

In the head we manufactured a new bulkhead cover piece from mahagony plywood as the previous one had an ugly cut in it due to the old Silva instrument cables. Now that those instruments are gone, it deserved a new cover. The plywood was painted with Cuprinol Ädellasyr in mahagony color to get a darker color that matches the existing interior better (the same I used for the plywood in the electrical panel) and several layers of Epifanes varnish.
