Ooooooo, preeeeety
Ya dun GRRRRR-8, Brutha Bear!
PS- I am thinking of adding one of those keel guards, let us know how well it lays down and if you feel it is stuck on real good, know what I mean...???
Thanks,
GT
Looks like ya got the hang of roll and roll ! It turned out great!
The first word I thought of when I saw the pics was WOW!!
That boat really looks sharp with that color scheme
Hey gang,
Well the bottom is finished!
Keel guard and scuff plate is installed! I taped off where the placement was going to be, sanded with 120 grit to remove orange peel so I had a good bond. Acetone rinse, then Keel guard primer, wait 5 min, and start application process. A helper would have been great... The keel guard wouldn't stay balanced, and kept sliding off. So I removed the entire center adhesive cover and stuck that first, instead of doing 2' sections at a time. Once this is stuck to the hull, aint no gettin it off! I had a slight alignment issue, but whatever. I need to roll, get this flipped tonight or tomorrow, and start stringers, as my fishing trip in September is fast approaching! Plus I'm sure everyone is getting as sick as I am of seeing the bottom of JL2!
Pics out in the sun!
...well at least those that are on boats and gals, anyway...:facepalm:
Good looking Bear! I can't see any mis-alignment on the keel guard from here
Now quit the lolly gaggin' & get 'er flipped already
Man the hull turned out good !! The keel guard conformed nicely to the keel.... Hmmmmm wonder if I can install one on the MFG . Plan on hanging out on a lot sandbars and may save some paint..
Very glad to hear that the keel guard seems to adhere good, I am definitely going to look into one...
I like the scuff guard, too...hadn't even thought of that...Nice!
You have done a primo job worth bragging about and showing off...Kudos, my friend!
Me personally, I really enjoy looking at a nice bottom...
Thanks for the fly bye brutha!
