Help decide my color

Well, whatchu think? Gotta bit of sanding to do before it will need paint, but free, yep, got an addiction, for sure.

Hey,

I think the green, brown, yellow & white is kinda nice. You can slide in amongst the ducks on the sound too.

[Guest]

You do have a point. But not so fast to judge, here. What the heck, the mast, sail, trailer for a ligher 20 footer, say a cs20?? Yea, whatchu think??? :wink: And in the meantime, what the heck, a smear our bondo, another coat of polyester resin for another 15 years duration, and coat of kilz on a quart of Ace hardware paint will make for some really neat fun for some alternative school kids, and a way to learn a bit about the water at absolutely no cost except for a bit of gas, and some therapy time spent.

Gotta learn working to deal with some alternative and less expensive supplies, as oil goes up, and no worries about it when it does get shoved into the reeds and marsh mud. 8)

I suspect anything but gloss black...

I forgot to add that this boat was built with a centerboard.

[Dave R1]

You're going to paint it? But why? Then it will look just like all the others.

I think you have an interesting trailer there. Looks like you've almost got room for two boats. And look at those spare tires.

It looks like two trailers stacked and opposing each other.

Is this the freebe from up Angies way? With a center board she must be an older boat.

[Guest]

I hate to do this, but this is the thread that show and tells about it. Yes, its an older boat, and yes its another trailer, the one was "rigged" for the boat. It was up in upper New York and a far piece to travel and I do not enjoy being broken down over the weekend. SO I took the MAX and loaded it on it for safe travel home.

9 hours. Now that has turned into an expansive boat. Fix her nice Mike.

[Guest]

Heck, two gallons of West System epoxy, and equipment to apply it cost as much , Craig. Please do not take that thread at heart. Envy is a pretty amazing thing coming from idols wishing that they had the chance at the few limited projects sitting in people's barns. :twisted: Worrying about time is relative only to the ones that worry about life being perfect. 8)

9 hours.

By the way, that is nine miles in three hours, not nine hours.

I'll bet it seemed like 9 hours. The beltway is a pain anytime. Glad I don't go up there very often any more. Don't worry Mike, I don't take much to heart. Lifes too short
