for you.

C'mon, I'd say more like 500 easy.

Bart, Echo is *beautiful*. The colors you chose are great.

I agree! But what were those red marks all over the bottom of the boat
before it was painted? Looks like he drove across Davy Jones locker. ;-)

BTW, Lady Pilot might switch her allegiance when she sees pics of both
you
and your boats....

Mercenary wench?

Hehee. Not since my Ollie North days... ;-)

Theboat had a number of blisters, voids in the laminate. The
flexing of the hull caused the gelcoat to crack and leave
behind star shaped crack which looked crappy.

The repair is to grind out the voids, and all the gelcoat, and
fill the voids with epoxy thicken with an easy to sand filler. I
used various colors to help show where more work was
needed. The early stage was red.

The outside of the boat is done. The inside still needs a bit
of work. Drop me a line, I like mercenary wenches.
