It's very nice, alot of work, but almost done. You will feel so good when you get back out there on your own boat, and catch fish again. Don't worry about the lines on the gel coat.
@andrewbouwer4445 how's going. Alot if work but my biggest problem was time I only work on it a few hours a week if the weather allows. Out of the whole rebuild the gelcoat is the biggest disappointment. But like a said it's a fishing boat not a million rand yacht 🤣
@francoismulder2106 how's it going. The problem with gelcoat is it need to be put of thick so it can dry properly a sponge roller put it on to thin then it takes for ever to dry. Yes almost there
Howzit Wesley, Boat is looking great! Excited to see it on the water again. I would like to make my deck non slip as well. What sand did you use and what did you use to make it stick before painting over it?
How's it keegan. Thanks for the positive feedback. I got some silica sand from a friend of mine. The best way I can describe it is that it look alot like pool filter sand just not so course. I rolled a thin coat of resin on the deck and sprinkled a very heavy amount with a corse flour sieve to get it even. Then left it for 24h to set then vacuumed up all the excess sand. Then I rolled a thin coat of poolcoat over the Sand. Only problem is the poolcoat take very long to cure because is put on thin. Alot of guys use 2k paint over the sand.
Hey Wes, lekker letting you know that there are bonnies and tail out at sea!
Soon soon I'll be out there again.
