The primer coat is on, and the boat already looks better than it did
with the 23 year old gelcoat.

I'm using a paint that is not that well known here in the Pac NW. It's
called ALEXSEAL, and it's made in Germany by a company that also makes
the paints they use for commercial jets. (Mankiewicz). They have been
around for about 100 years, and the yacht paint division has been
developed by a guy who used to be the head of U.S. Paint and has an
excellent reputation in yacht finishing.

A link for anybody with an interest in knowing more about the paint:
