primer coat peeling a bit...

Now that I have my sailboat hull in a dry garage.  I have noticed that the primer coat I put on last summer is peeling in spots.  Also, the fiberglass strips I placed on a couple of the scarf joints are loosening.

 

What do I do now.  Sand the whole hull down and reprime?  Totally strip all of the priming off and reprime?  I will replace the fiberglass no matter what.  I originally went with the fg strips because I couldn't afford to glass the entire hull...  Now I am thinking about "biting the bullet" and glass the whole hull.  Can I go over the primer coat or should I sand down to bare wood to get the best adhesion of epoxy to wood?

 

Any suggestions are welcome.

 

I am just about done fileting the entire hull interior - thank God!  Then I can prime and paint the interior and get busy on decking, seats, etc.

New - Old - Bandsaw

An older friend of mine has made available to me an 18" bandsaw that has been sitting in the basement of a rental unit he owns.  25+ years ago he paid  $125 for it at an auction.  He now just wants to get it out of this building as the apartments have been sold. 

He said I could have it for whatever price I wanted to offer, so we agreed on $100 as I have to still get this massive piece out of the basement.  He is throwing in another more modern 10" bandsaw with a few parts missing and an antique Singer tredle sewing machine (can't tell the condition under all of the dirt/dust).

So you can imagine that I am very happy...!
