Well hot damn, I finally figured out the photo posting. Seems to be a little different for a MAC This is MichaelA's 20. The usual new transom, floor OK. Repaint with one part poly. Wood is salvaged Brazilian cherry flooring. New 115 Opti Apollo prop. 41 mph GPS. Found this site about the time everything was done but enjoy reading every day.

Re: image test
Nice boat, but I am even more impressed with your lawn. Is that real grass or that new Brady Brunch synthetic grass?

Re: image test
Real grass, I just spray paint it green every couple of months.

Re: image test
Looks great :)
I like the off white color you chose for the innards. I will be curious to know how the 1-part paint holds up because it sounds alot easier than potentially poisoning yourself with Awlgrip. It looks like you are getting pretty good speed out of the Opti too! |
Re: image test
I have sprayed Imiorn and looked at Agrip before painting this. I used Interlux Brightside Polyurethane and their primer Pre-Kote. Shot with a cheap pressure pot spray gun, outside. I was very happy with the results. This is the third year on the paint job without wax and there is still great gloss. There is some wear on the deck but real easy to roll on another coat. Interlux also recommends this paint also for the roll and tip technique. Make sure you keep a wet edge as you spray.

Re: image test
Michael_A,
Those appear to be some VERY nice spray rails you have on the work of nauticl art. Do you care to share details about them; material, dimensions, supplier, fastening method, self -installed or pro? You get the idea. Thaks in advance. |

Re: image test
BigLew- The spray rails are teak and as far as I can tell original equipment. I must say they work very well. If you would like I can measure them and send you a profile. They are consistent in dimension their full length and rounded on either end. Just walked out to the boat and measured them, They are 1 1/2 inches wide and 1 inch thick flat stock- screwed or bolted on the outboard edge and plugged with 1/2 teak plugs. There is no place in the boat where I can see if it is a screw or bolt. I would hope it is a bolt but if not they have lasted very well. This may be a much cheaper solution. The rail starts 42" from stern and runs all the way to the bow. I did put a 3/8 radius on the outboard top edge before painting. You could probably benefit by steaming the stock before bending in place or on a mold but I have never steamed teak only oak and mahog. I wonder if the new PVC white house trim would work? Tough to glue. Thank you for the compliment on the boat.
