Waiting for the next dry spell to tackle the next section. <br /><br />Thanks for stopping by.Davidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07950027944252186558noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9174707630587958872.post-6041282443151830342015-11-22T14:17:16.001-05:002015-11-22T14:17:16.001-05:00Wow!

I'll post a link if I find it.<br /><br />The paint comes in lots of colors.Davidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07950027944252186558noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9174707630587958872.post-47183067054365477532015-11-20T21:08:17.626-05:002015-11-20T21:08:17.626-05:00Really nice.

I'd try painting a color similar to what's already on the deck. I think I have a bit more texture to the nonskid areas.<br /><br />I didn't do much today. I drilled out a couple holes that were leaking through the boat from bad patch work in the past. When I drilled out the old patches, I was greeted with a little bit of mushy wood, but I still went ahead and filled them with epoxy and a little thickened epoxy. Mostly a band-aid but should help keep more water from messing things up for now.Danhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07379397976154250105noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9174707630587958872.post-18528821742599110082015-11-20T20:54:40.908-05:002015-11-20T20:54:40.908-05:00Thanks Peter.

It makes a huge difference in the way the boat looks.Onapuahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07501898616396408918noreply@blogger.com
