Just finished painting my 1977 23 CC

[Fishjack]

My original red 23 CC was looking pretty bad. More white than red.

When I bought the boat in 1994 I sanded buffed and polished her back to a decent red finish but that only lasted about a year or so.. It got to the point in the last few years that any amount of elbow grease would not work so...
Last week I started sanding and preparing the hull for paint -






I decided to try Tom Fabula's Signature Finish paint and it came out with an impressive finish for a roll on application... This is 3 coats and I have not buffed it yet... According to Tom you can buff the paint to acheive an even better finish. But considering what it looked like before this is a vast improvement.




With Hardware -







Up next will be the topside (recessed cleats, bow light etc.) and I plan on enclosing the transom..

Gotta get some fishing in first..
