    Default Sanding, prepping, painting inside my skiff now.

    Good friend Richard Chapin helped me with some cosmetic fiberglass repairs to my boat.

    Now I am spending about a week sanding, prepping and painting the inside of my boat.

    I am using a special oil base marine grade paint that come in only 4 colors called Topside.

    Battleship Gray, Navy Blue, White and Black.


    Then I have to clean, buff and wax the outside. I am actually using household "Soft Scrub" to start with.


    In a few days I can take it to Sutter Marine in Yuba City and have Brian install a Yamaha 50hp 4 stroke.

    That's hard work Bill. Will be well worth it when it's done though.

    I have lots of time and it is good exercise. I guess I like working on "stuff" ?
