Just a quick coat on the bottom .About 2/3 of the fasco gone i guess.Box was made by shorelander.

 

[SHSU]

I found this one, but its not made by shorelander. Similar?





Also, you ordered a gallon of Fasco, correct?

 

[82rude]

Sorry i gave you the wrong name,it was shoreline.Yes that looks the same.Also picked up a couple of safety items today.

Filled up with Beer!?!?!?!?! Yes that would be good!!!!! LOL

I looked at doing those, but since I will be on the gulf at times I figured I would go with Coast Guard approved lights... Did you have the one light on the bow before? How you going to close up that hole?

 

[82rude]

Im planning on putting a smallish led bar light on there .Where i boat im usually the only one around for 20 miles,so i could use it to spot shore etc without blinding anybody.Being a canuck U.S coast guard approval is of no matter to me atall.As long as their kosher where i am is all that matters.

LOL, I worry about it being here in the states. I was on a cruise ship out of Galveston with the wife. We were watching the CG cutter sailing along side us and I thought it weird how they kept pace and then would cut behind us. Then over the loud speaker we were told someone was flying a drone and it was in violation of the US National Defense Agency.... or something like that LOL. All I know is, I don't want to be on a 16ft Starcraft when they come hailing with a .50 caliber....

 

[82rude]

I believe those led bow strips are legal ,i cant see why not,they do the exact same purpose as a traditional bow light.Boy their sure panicking about those drones eh.They make them out to be some kind of super destroyer,never mind that they actually cant do one onethousanth of the nonsense they attribute to them.Dont tell anybody but ive developed one that can carry the q bomb.

 

[SHSU]

Here in the states, the USCG requires it says they approved them. If they don't then they are not approved; however, I doubt you will ever get hasseled by them over that as long as you have lights that work and oriented correctly.

I thought about getting into drones, but I know a couple people who have lost some high dollar drones. Don't think I want to eat the cost if mine decided to self destruct.... So I got into boat restorations instead :rofl:

 

[82rude]

Just arrived today.12 inch led light for bow .Very well built ,surprising enough.Came with all wiring and switch.

Very Nice!!! What are the specs on that light? I am looking at different ones and that one appears well built.

Heres a link to what i bought.Bear in mind thats canada your amazon my be cheaper etc.https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B017K1PKTM/ref=pe_3034960_236394800_TE_dp_1

 

[82rude]

No instructions for some odd reason.If i like it will be getting one for my polaris ace.My local canadian tire has one similar for double the price!!!!!Made out of metal not plastic.

 

[82rude]

Painted the top part of my boat and splash well with Tremclad today (rustolem) .Then it started to rain.Hope it will be ok.Whole next week rain is forecast for every friggin day!Permission granted to any part of N.A merica that wants to steal our rain,have at it .

 

[Watermann]

That's a bummer, did you get it covered to keep the water off?

Hasn't rained here since the first of June. Not a single cloud in the 10 day forecast either. Temps around 100 - 103

Watch for fisheye if moisture while gassing. Will need to sand out after fully cured, light detergent wipe, then tack cloth. Multiple light finish coats in badly affected areas. Heat lamps helpful.

Thanks, looks like a good buy. I was looking at the ones listed below. That way I could put them on if I was night fishing and take them off durring the day.

[82rude]

SEE the bottom left corner where the tremclad splotched?Paint leeched out from the rain i believe.If it ever stops raining i will just add 1 more coat.

When im done i hope the boat turns out like this,lol.

 

[82rude]

SHSU the light turned out great.Now to just adjust on the lake some dark and lonely night,which is every night up at camp.Less than 10 camps on a 35 mile lake.

 

[82rude]

Light installed on boat.
