Jere ,, what about the color? Lots of talk that the color of Cetol is bad..
has that been a problem? Is this something that can be controled? Jere Lull wrote: Sailing is always choosing trade-offs. Absolutely agreed. Truth be told, few can tell the difference between clear and Cetol from 50 feet away; fewer cruisers care. Now here I disagree on both points. Cruisers do care about the looks of their boats. And if you've ever seen really nice brightwork, it can easily be told from Cetol at 50' or even 100'. Is that small detail worth the extra work? Up to you. Personally, I don't, which is why I don't work on the varnish on our boat. In times past, I have maintained a few wooden boats, two of which were in showroom-perfect condition much of the time. Getting it there is really the work intensive part, once it's there, it only takes a little on a regular basis to keep it. But most people (myself included these days) don't have the persistence.
