Thanks glnbnz, second coat is on, notice the garbage container used that to slow down traffic to keep the dust down in the back lane.

Got the masking tape off, paint job came great, my son is the painter he's getting really good at it, one tiny run but after two coats we think that's pretty good. got the bluefin decals on the trailer.

Looking great. Well done. I think your son is now officially a painter.

Looks great, driveway paint jobs are challenging too! An angry swarm of gnats usually come around about the time I'm getting finished.

Found a new project, 1970 something Lund 15, 1999 90 hp Yamaha, going to be a quick flip, got her gutted and transum out in about 3 hours. Link to new thread http://forums.iboats.com/boat-resto...pair/70-something-lund-15-rebuild-647739.html

Got a good price locally Ga I like the 1999 90 hp yamaha, PO says it does at least 50 mph with 1 person, took out at least 200 pounds of wet foam and transum, we'll see what she does with new flotation and transum.
