Next, a different grit to get the rest of the paint off, then it's
sanding and coating with some kind of new vinyl ester paint - supposed
to be better than gel coat.

WHOO HOO!!

Now the hull will be all white - like real boats should be. :)
If you were re-doing the hull of a real boat, you would be in the
dirt, pounding cotton


That's for dorks.


What did the boat look like before you blasted it with sand?
