End September 2006,  21 hours.

 

My centerhull in now painted!!! This step feels very good. It is an important milestone in the project. I can now really enjoy what I have accomplished.

I used about 4.5 liters of Awlgrip 2 parts topcoat, in three coats. Color is Oyster White, nice mellow color. I still have to do the anti-skid but I will use rollers for that.

Spray painting is an art which I do not master completely... The boat looks good but there are a few defects. Next boat I will try to hire a professional to do the spraying.

Anyway it is done and I can move on to some more fun stuff: fittings!
