Re: My Skiff Rebuild [Pic Intense]

Next time somebody tells me a wood boat is a lot of work,I'm sending them here!



I sometimes wish I would have just built me an FS18.
I bet it would have been the same around of money, and much more rewarding.

Re: My Skiff Rebuild [Pic Intense]

Got the first coat of paint on there today.
But about two hours after I sprayed it, a storm came through so I'm hoping that the rain didn't mess it up.
The skiff is under a car port, but the winds that came by were intense.
I know water had to have been blown on it.
Sorry for the picture quality, I took them with my iPhone.


I got very good coverage out of the first coat.
Once the second and third coats are on there, it should look great.
Hoping to have it done and non-skided by the weekend.

Buffed out the hull side today.
It's tough getting a reflection shot on such a bright color.
But it looks like a mirror.

Almost ready for the rub rail to go on.

I bought the rub rail, and I finished buffing the other side.

No, Str8 would need to be the paid subscriber for you to see the pix. Str8 hasnt been on iboats in nearly 8yrs, not likely to get or reply to your request for pix.

Photobucket gutted the online community across the entire internet when they changed their user agreement w no warning. Multiple forums and user groups now have thousands of black holes, like this topic, that is virtually useless w out the previously posted pix.

Start a topic about your boat project and you'll get plenty of help, regardless of what brand boat you're working on....

Topic closed

Also avoid posting in topics w no recent activity, after 90days w no new posts, consider them for research only and not to be written to.
