That is the original gelcoat. I though it was a faded white or beige when we pulled it from the woods |

Decided the hull came back so good we need to paint the liner, windshield pulled.
Gas Tank arrived, aligning for pads and a few other things going on! And to throw a monkey wrench into todays progress an acquaintance saw what we were up to and said " I have a boat that needs some work, if you want it you can have it for free" 80's 25' Whaler Frontier. went and looked at it. We now have another project in the works. Attachment 8120 Attachment 8121 Attachment 8122 Attachment 8123 |

So my concern was moisture in the foamed compartments with it having nowhere to go and would sit in there forever.
Was thinking how to have a channel at the bottom for the weep holes in the bulkheads on the sides. So we did a test on the two compartments with the foam left from the tank. Came up with this idea - Take a piece of potwarp and coat it in wax and run it along the bottom, foam it, let the foam cure then pull it out. Well the foam cured and I couldn't move the rope. Two guys feet on bulkhead giving it everything we had it popped free. Now have a 1/2 in weep channel at the bottom of the foam. |
