Your boat does look nice. What type of paint did you use and how was it applied?

[kheid]

paint was seagloss topside paint i had leftover from another job i pressure washed most of the gunk off when i bought the boat then wiped it with some acetone and rolled it on with a foam roller...... had three or four small cracks i ground out with a dremmel and filled with some marine putty then sanded .....the nonslip that was on it already looked fine and where the cracks were filled and sanded i put some non slip in a salt and pepper shaker and lightly sprinkled it on waited till it dried then put a 2nd coat on it turned out pretty good for an amatuer ..... thanks

Don't mean to hijack this thread but I know an old timer who is selling his 211, He's well into his 70's and just can't do the launch and retrieve anymore. He says floor and transom are solid. Has an older 150 merc [1983-1984?]looks in pretty good shape....it is still tarpped so I didn't climb into it. He lives only five miles away so I'd be happy to check it out for anybody. If I didn't have a nice v20 I would strongly consider that boat. Almost forgot...sits on a nice dual axle roller, don't know the year but it looks like a recent purchase.
