23 CC rebuild - shine

[shine]

sides and brackets are painted. Only took two coats, rolled and tipped. A little dust on the paint, will have to buff that out later.





Inside will be Matterhorn white, non skid will be a lite gray color

What did the console come off of? Kinda looks like a something from a Contender.

The guy I got it from bought it from a manufacturer (it was on his 23 seacraft), I believe it was from Whitewater, but I cant remember. The keywest style t-top mounts directly to the console. Its pretty nice

Why the decision to roll and tip the hull when you have the capabilty of spraying?

for a non-pro I know I can get better results with roll and tip. Also, less waste and hardly and setup/clean up work.

But I don't envy you the fairing and sanding it took to make it look so pretty. Can't wait to see it with the top coat on.

your right about that! I was able to find some help for the inside fairing. It probably added 20 hours to the re-build, maybe more.

Looks great, I really like the roll and tip myself. When you get a knack for it it looks great. So much less prep than spraying, let alone if your in a yard with other boats right on top of you.

not to mention its illegal to spray in most places now unless you have a booth. A guy just yesterday told me of friend of his that was caught and fined for spraying in his warehouse.

More slow, but steady progress.

Bracket is on. Deck has non-skid and starting to get hardware. i will hold off on putting non-skid down on the sole until Im finished rigging. Non-skid is Kiwigrip, my business distributes it. The hatch covers on the sole have been fitted with seals/gaskets, I just have to put on the latches and piano hinges. The last few pictures are of the transom box hatch covers being made. I have the rubrail, its the same light gray color as the non-skid - should look pretty good

I really really like it, your nonskid layout is great imho. The hatches and receivers look great in there. Can't wait to see the nonskid.

I wish I had the skills/knowledge to build something like this. Looks great!

Planning on using that same non-skid on my skiff.. Looks Awesome, can't wait to see the rest of the decks.
