And away we go...

Awlgrip "Eggshell", which I had Tom (@ Signature Paint) mix up for my 1975 18SF is also almost a perfect match.

Talked to Tom last week an apparently there was a fire and the 162 formula is no more.

Just send Tom a sample of your Gel coat and i'm confident he can match it. I still have some #162A (mixed before the fire) he can duplicate it. I gave him a sample of my glass a few months ago. I'll call him and see if he has smoke inhalation or not

Thanks !! I saved the glass i cut out to mount speakers .... i knew it would come in handy !!

Tested the minimum planing speed with 9X12 Bennett's fully down and a Yamaha 13 1/4 X 17 semi clever aluminum prop on my 2001 115 2 stroke. It's tough to see but GPS says 11 knots and even could have got it lower than that after looking at the video again.

Cool! When it's too rough for me to run faster I'll high speed troll at 12-14 knots on the way offshore, on a 18' SeaHunt, no tabs.
It helps when your hull can plane at these slow speeds.
Can't do this with my 25' Contender; have to use a lot of tab and run 20+ knots to stay on plane.

After exhausting prep work to the hull, I was able to apply the first coat of interlux perfection in fighting lady yellow. I'll end up applying at least two more coats.

In the daylight and back on the trailer.
