Re: My new boat is relaunched- pics
thanks fellas. to answer some questions...<br /><br />madalyn rose is my 2 yr old daughter.<br /><br />i did the work at the marina at naval station annapolis. haul, block, and launch with a week of storage cost me $185. quotes from 2 other annapolis marinas had the costs at close to $500. the military has good deals sometimes.<br /><br />spent probably close to $400 on materials. paint was $185/gal and the biggest cost. but i also spent too much on supplies and also have some things left over (dewaxer, wax, boat soap, etc).<br /><br />i spent approx 22 hours on everything over a week, but i wasted a lot of time. i tried various things to get the paint and vinyl off- dewaxer, adhesive remover, accetone. nothing seemed to work. finally went with peel away paint stripper. transom also needed additional wet sanding with 1500 grit to clean it up. finished up with a good washing, and wax/buff with electric buffer. also did some interior cleaning and messing around.<br /><br />sanded bottom with orbital sander, and painted with interlux micron extra.<br /><br />still have some interior work i want to do, but don't we all.
