This past weekend we dry fit the rub rail and filled behind the rail to make a nice curved edge to the boat. Lots of tedious work but it came out great in the end. We got the boat off the trailer as well and will be prepping the bottom for gel coat and moving into the final sanding and painting. The finish line is in sight!

Advice needed!
We are putting down AwlGrip Grip Tex for the Non-Skid. Mixed with Cloud White. I have seen mixed reviews on using the flattening agent, some people say its harder to clean, and the griptex cuts the glare down enough on the deck. What have you guys used. Any ideas?

I have been using awlgrip for a long time. Gloss does stay cleaner and is more durable.
The flattening agent is a pain in the ass. It has no shelf life, needs to be agitated pretty frequently while spraying, and will wind up glossy,or patchy looking, if temps are too warm or you use the wrong reducer. Gloss looks awesome with a 50/50 mix of coarse and fine. Looks best if you spray the sand with a primer gun, and let it dry up good before the sealer coat

Thanks everyone for the comments, been using the boat a lot lately and still haven't found a solution for shade. I thought I was onto something with a product called Hydra Shade that is basically an umbrella that securely fits in a rod holder, but it looks like they are not producing them anymore. Anyone have any other ideas? I have tried and passed on the Anchor Shade and the TUUCI Top is too rich for me.

LaPorte's Upholstery, and others, make a shaded cover using poles on the corners pulling a Sunbrella type material tight. I would imagine you need 4 rod holders in the cap to support this. I have no idea on cost but they're collapsible and you can run with them up.
