Well, it was agreat day in Lewes, so I had some time to work on the boat. Would have gotten more work done, but guys at the boat yard love to jabber more then a bunch of women at a tea party. As you all can see, I decided to go to town with the West System and patched in any type of ding or scratch. Also pulled out that pump that sucks water into the bait well.
Sorry, you wont see any fishing poles on this boat. Just spear guns. : )
Also found a slight crack on top of the transom about a 1/2 long, so I pulled out the grinder and went to town. Wasnt bad at all, not sure how it cracked at the top, maybe the motor bouncing when being trailer in the past. She's solid now though. Also added in three access hatches a few days ago as well. I will be priming the entire hull below the water line with Interlux 2000E water barier coat. Dont wanna see anymore spidering cracks on the skegs, might make it slightly better for resale as well. Repainting the hull below the waterline white again, using a below the waterline paint called Top Secret, somebody posted the site on this paint recently. They swear it will look like a spray finish when completed. Hopefully this weekend if teh rain holds off I will have the hull undercoated, but being held up because my deck isnt sanded yet. I bought a gallon of the interlux 200E and want to use it as well on the deck before adding the TUFF COAT non skid flooring. So I'll be hopefully sanding the deck Saturday, but again, Iam running against the clock. The 65 ft. boat next to me needs to get out sometime next week. Not sure if I'll get her done in time, but have the burners on to finish her up and get her home.
Enjoy the pics. ;D

Gitter done Hammer. I want to see how the bottom job turns out. IF it works as well as I think I may paint mine white as well.

How is that stuff working out for you?? I have a friend that just bought a whaler that was near a fire, there is a bunch of blistering that I have to grind off.
Fiberglass is fine, so just need a filler then paint.

Looks good, if I drag mine there will you strip the bottom paint, west the bottom and paint mine??? I will pay you a buck two ninty eight ;D

Doing pretty well with the West System and fairing. The sanding turned out great. The only problem that I am having now and waisted the day on is Dewaxing the hull. I would have had the Interlux primer on today, but I still seen alot of shiny spots on the hull. I scuffed the hull using 80 grit and 50 grit. Dewaxed the hull before and after, but still seen some shiny spots. DOnt want to do all the work and then watch it flake off. So I again started to resand the hull again. By 3pm today and lightning storm rolled into town so I stopped and called it a day.
I'll have all 4 coats of primer on her SUnday for sure, thats if it doesnt rain Sunday and if I dont dose off since I'm working the midnight shift tonight.

Has anybody ever used Dewaxer before ????
Are you still suposed to see a shine ????
I simply thought dewaxing would take the shine out of the hull. Any input would be great.
Will post more pics on Sunday of the hull primered.
