Great Job!!...
 one suggestion...those hatch lids on your stern have a bad habit of gettin' broken because they lay all the way over on the cleat as your picture shows...you might wanna consider a STOP chain inside of some kind to keep it from layin' all the way over like that...

Update
I made my plans, however when I went to work my plan I was forced to make changes.
I initially said I was going to roll and tip the gel not spray, this did not work out since the Home Depot sold me a roller, which came apart during the rolling. I bit the bullet and brought a real gel coat gun with the correct nozzle 4.7 mm. See link http://cgi.ebay.com/Gel-Coat-and-Res...QQcmdZViewItem It goes back on ebay when I am done! My progress so far with the Gel coating looks promising so I decided to do the entire Boat! I have since remove the rails and patch all holes etc. I pull the 60-gallon aluminum tank more holes that the government bailout plans. Purchase a Poly tank used for 30 bucks, I will foam it in, its one inch too long for the hole on the deck, I will cut the deck floor and re-glass (I am confident I can re-attach it without any issues) In the previous pictures hope you guys notice I eliminated the deck drains from both sides of the boat and re-routed both to the inside in the bilge area. I also lower the main drain hole in the transom to fully drain the hull! Sanding, I refuse to go with the manual sanding block and that’s my line and I am sticking to it. The orange peel effect from the previous extra thick spray (deliberately done to fill all minor flaws), I was forced to go with a 60 grit to cut the peel yes its that hard, and 220 to prep it for the final coat. I am using the GelCoat as primer in this step if so to speak. I am using a De-Fault palm sander and producing exceptional results, once this is done on the previous spray I will mist on a light coat of GelCoat and DURATEC HI-GLOSS CLEAR Mix 50/50 with gelcoat for a beautiful high-gloss finish. I will post pictures of all the aforementioned steps

nymack66 did you have to sand the gel after you sprayed with that cup gun? or did it put the gel down pretty smooth?

I'd be interested in some pics after the duratec mix is applied. Are you planning on using a smaller size tip for that coat?
Looks good! Kamikaze
