There's rough, and there's random rough....

Some guy was telling me a story about local fishermen, in a place long
forgotten, who smear 5200 on the outside like they were plastering a
wall.

I've no idea how well it works.

Matt,
I wonder if the right kind of ruff might not be better. From what I've
read some of the speed swimmers are using a type of body suit that mimics a
fish's skin, reducing drag.

From what I gather over the years, the inside if a steal hull boat
should be left accessable for maintenance.

I'm talking about the outside, not the inside. Several boaters
around here (fresh water) have done so.



This Rhino stuff although very tough is very rough .. I would be
concerned it increases drag of the boat in the water significantly ...
