Hey,.
well the
hull in Solid condition. Classic.
I'd like to restore it and take it to the classic shows, but probably not.
My Uncle will be doing most of the work. i'll just be there for handing over stuff. My uncle is pretty advanced in painting houses so i think he will know what to do. Problem is i don't see him often cause he lives almost in CT. and mostly see him on holidays only.
But I asked him to come down for a weekend or 2 and he agreed
so i wont be doing it
He knows about painting but not prices....
John, i realize that is the best way to go- but this hull was painted over by some idiot who owned it last. it looks like house paint, i peeled some of it off and the paint under it looks so much better, ALMOST looks like if i took all the crappy paint off it would be shiny again
is there a way to peel that coat of paint off and see what the paint under looks like? and then clean all that...?
I don't think it will be $3000 to cover a little boat like this..
If it's done by a Pro...yeah 3 grand.
But in my backyard on a spring weekend it shouldn't be too bad.
There is an area i'd like to Re-glass, near the bow..i bought a fiberglass repair it so that should be that.....
Theres a few Hairline cracks in the chalky paint on top- i never seen the whole boat with out that "house paint" on it...it may look good?
I ALMOST definetly want to repaint it; Roll & tip is what i plan to do..
Alls im aking for is a Price Estmate for all the paint/primer to cover this boat.
TIPS STILL WANTED
thanks alot for the great responses already!
