So after two and a half months of non stop sanding and cleaning and fairing we finally got the boat sanded and ready for paint this past week. We decided to go with Imron over awlgrip given our past experiences and also given our experience spraying Imron vs never spraying awlgrip. We are beyond happy with how well it came out.

And the bracket. We plan on doing a white boot stripe and a real bottom paint. The inside of the boat will be Snow White and the non skid awlgrip aqua mist. Our next big step is spraying the gunnels and the cap which we will hopefully do this week along with the top of the bracket. Then the fun begins with putting everything back together. We also plan on spraying the suzuki 140 white as well.

Looking Real Good Mike!

Your on the way to the "Gucci Award" don't disappoint me....
I have one recommendation thou. You have mounted your pump correctly & used top notch bilge plumbing, but I think a S/S inline fuel shut off valve (coming from the fuel tank)
next to your fuel / water separator for easy access would be a sound safety addition.

Well we ended Friday on a good note and got the bracket installed on the boat. We are really happy with the way it looks and I am getting anxious to find a motor and get that painted as well to see how it really looks.

Capt. Chuck thanks for the advice on the fuel shut off. We will have to order one and install it.

Hopefully this week we will get the bottom barrier coated and painted and try to get her back on the trailer.

Things are really coming togethe.
