Default Gelcoat vs.LP

If you are in the tropics I strongly recommend that you DO NOT clear
coat the boat. I have seen a couple of boats that have been
clearcoated here in Thailand (my own and another chap's) and in both
cases after about 5 years the clear coat began to blister and peel and
the boats required repainting.

Sounds like skimpy prep work, Bruce, but you probably already know
a whole lot about that (now).
