SOOOO havent posted in almost two years on my thread. And my boat has just been sitting there, as I took on other projects. FINALLY i am in 'get this damn thing done and ready for the summer' mode. I opted to tear out the entire deck and re-do everything the way I wanted.



Once I got all that mess cleaned up, I flipped it over and have the entire bottom sanded and small issues filled and am ready to paint. I had planned on this weekend, but its looking like wind and rain will be hindering me. I'm using all Interlux Perfection 2 part products, Ive had great luck with their stuff in the past and they are priced very reasonable. Bottom will be snow white, sides will be jet black, inside will be snow white with light grey Kiwi grip accents.




Oh and heres a few pics of the Whaler that I recently finished...

Ran home today on my lunch break and got the bottom side sprayed. Finally had a calm enough day to get it done. Came out pretty well and I will post pictures once I get back home. Looks like rain and wind this weekend or else I would be flipping it back over and spraying the topsides of the hull.

Few pictures I took this morning, sorry for not perfect quality, taken from my iphone. I'm going to move the carport and let the sun harden up the paint for a week or so before I flip it over and put it back on the trailer to spray the sides and start work on the deck.





Had ONE run area on the port side of the transom that ill have to sand and buff, but besides that came out pretty nice.

Looks good antibling.  Did you end up using that Supermarine paint from the link you posted.  I am highly considering using that paint.
