My old boat was looking kind of ratty for the last couple of years, with the paint cracking and peeling.
When I first refinished the hull, the fiberglass resin I put on seemed dry, but was not fully cured. That is what started the cracking, but it was barely noticeable. At least for the first couple of years, anyway.
I didn't get the boat out on the water much at all last year, so painting it got pushed back for lack of time.
Today, I got it taken care of. It took all day to get the boat up off the trailer, sand the bad spots down, wash the hull, and get two coats of paint on it.
I also want to get the top of the boat done, but I still need to get the red paint for that. Finding the paint turned out to more difficult than I figured on. All the places I used to get the paint from no longer carry it. I did find a place in Nicholasville that has it, so next time I'm down there, I'll pick it up.
Getting Closer!
