3: Narrowboat DIY - Bilge De-rusting and Vactan

We removed the ballast and insulation in the bow end of the bilge, sanded/chiselled the rust and put a layer of vactan on it. There's also a little bit of Gaz doing some rewiring of the plugs.
We are Ash and Gaz, two self-employed performers living on our narrowboat while we do an (almost) complete DIY overhaul. We also write and play music as Butterfly Moon.
We hope you enjoy our journey! Comments and suggestions welcome.

    not seen under floor mains before on a boat lol. Think maybe replace it with arctic blue anyway?

    It’s not supposed to be on the floor 😂 It used to trail down the gunwales I think but we’ve just got everything everywhere at the moment! In fact, thinking about it, some of it did actually run along the top of the subfloor. Lots to change 😂

    We’ve just bought a roll of the arctic blue 😁 Good to know that’s a good thing to get!
