Hi Adrian,

I have no idea of the brand of this paint, it is still used by Nautor on old Swans…

I will ask Paco in Badalone yard if he knows.

Now some updates about Algol on following pictures :

Cher Yves,

what a good job they did in Badalona, congratulation!

Fair winds!

matteo (47/069 Vanessa)

PS 1 Hope she will be back at sea in time to join no less than 28 other Sparkman&Stephens Swan inMarciana Marina...

PS 2 there is no chance for modern non-sparkman&stephens boats: S&S Swan shape is the best!!!

hi, just a final zoom on the rebuilded area, completely finished.

as other jobs are pending onboard, the yard wants to wait before painting,

and will do this job at the end...

finished, waiting for paint, the later the better...
