Ah Willie, I went to the site you mentioned... All the photos were of
the topsides of a horrid little yellow boat.
I hate to be the one to tell you but a hull doesn't absorb much water
above the waterline. I'm amazed that a well rounded sailor like
yourself doesn't know that it is the under water portion that gets the
blisters.
Ah well, as I've often told you, opening your mouth simply proves what
most people already assume - that you are the biggest fool on rbc.
Cut your ignorance quotient, please, Brucie Boi!
Check out the pristine bottom with NO BLISTERS. Smooth as a baby's
bottom. December 2010.

The GRP bottom required NO nothing!!!! No fairing, no hours of washing
to get blister effluent dribbles off, no sealing, no scraping, no long
board sanding, no primer, nothing but the application of three gallons
of Petit Trinidad Pro. New, multi-colored boot stripe tape, however,
just to better accentuate her beauty. The lighter blue paint above the
rubbing strake is now a darker blue as seen in the topsides photos you
were so envious of:

of colors better integrates the handsome color scheme of the whole boat.
The cast iron keel did have a few rusty areas. These needed to be
scraped, sanded, primed and covered with an epoxy coating prior to
laying on the five or six coats of bottom paint.
Eat your heart out!
