Default Project update

Happy New Years to all.

After having to put the V20 to a side to fix some roof leaks & painting the home (have to keep the wife happy), I'm glad to resume the work on the V.

I'm going to install a anchor roller & rope pipe, but in a custom way. These pics show the mod & primer. Next, correct all the smaller flaws that appear by the hundreds after the primer.

Default Masking for spraying texture

Tnx Richie. At last final work. I decided to contract the texturing job to a friend of mine (to technical for me). He's going to use a special sprayer to shoot gelcoat, no sand needed. It should look like factory work (I hope). These pics are of the masking job. Later I'll post pics of the finished work.

Default Pretty Work!!!

I thought I saw a speck on that flawless white paint job - then I realized it was on my computer screen!

That's some gorgeous work, from the transom re-build to the non-slip deck finish. Really good idea raising the transom 5 inches. One of the only faults I've found with the V20s is a tendancy to sit a little lower in the stern than I'd like, especially the models with that huge hatch in the splashwell. Raising the transom 5 inches will provide a much peace of mind.

Kudos on a job well done.
