Hello y'all.....
I am new here to the forum and have been on here for a few months now getting a lot of great ideas from everyone. I recently picked up a 1980 Bedouin 19ft open bow ski boat and wanted to share my restore (well, repaint that is) with everyone on the forum.
I picked this boat up from a client of mine. I am a residential and commercial paint contractor and we did some trade work. Having never painted a boat before I was skeptical about doing it myself. I took it to a guy to get a bid and was quoted $1,600 to do just the hull. More than what I wanted to spend on it. So I took to Google and Youtube Was able to find a lot of great videos and information on painting the boat myself and sooooo I went to work.
