Description and history are here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\nThe Sharptown barge was thoroughly brushed and vacuumed to remove dirt buildup from interior surfaces and grit from bottom plank edge joints. The exterior was scraped to remove unsound paint, and the exterior was sanded smooth. Bottom planks and side planks to the water were painted with dark red oil-based marine paint (not anti-fouling bottom paint). Topsides were painted with gloss white oil-based marine paint. The interior was treated with 50% boiled linseed oil and 50% Penetrol. The cradle was scraped, sanded, and repainted with flat black oil-based marine paint.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
