Painting my 50 foot sailboat this time not alone! Oh, and since I’ve done it once before, I have just a bit of experience lol.
With all Eva has been through, we felt she deserved some love. So we cleaned up the stern with some fresh gelcoat last week, and this week we get her ready for some new bottom paint. We have been lucky enough to be hauled out at @nanajuanamarina1932 Nanajuana Marina and we hired them to take off the old bottom paint for us. It wasn’t cheap, but they did good work. And since we physically couldn’t work for a while due to sickness, having them working on the boat for a few days limited the downtime.
We are putting our new bottom paint at an educated guess location based on where the staining on the gelcoat. We scuffed up the gelcoat, cleaned it, and slapped on some new barrier coat. And to comply with recoat windows and whatnot, we slapped on the first coat of bottom paint….and this time, Eva’s bottom’s gone back to black.
Love you all, be safe be good!
