Moving right along. Prepped and painted the feature stripe and boot stripe. And coat #5 of 8 on the cap rail. White on hull is faired out, primered and ready for awlgrip touch ups. Waiting on the specific color to come in. Special order. Every time i visit the boat i like the styling more and more. #captainalbert #theprofessor #ChrisCraftRoamer #ChrisCraft #chriscraftboat

So the hull on this boat hasn’t been painted in 18 years … I am only polishing the sides and it looks good as new!!! Here’s some before and after. White was painted with interlux 800 (a two part spray on), the red and blue stripes are automotive paint (also sprayed on) #boatwithnoname

So I tracked down the guy that painted this boat last and it was in 1998, 21 years ago!!!!! He V grooved it, did a skim coat of epoxy and then used the interlux 800 two part paint. here's the photos he brought me yesterday of when it was hauled out in 1998 for painting … And a couple of how that paint job looks today. Amazing!!!! anyone want theirs done call Jerry Bradley in fort Worth Texas (pm me for his number) #boatwithnoname

Pushing forward, I decided to repaint the hull sides. The guys did a good job getting the hull prepped for paint. Keyed the existing paint with 240 and filled dings and scratches with polyester filler. I stayed late and got starboard side completed. Rolled with 6″ open foam roller and back brushed with Interlux Brightside Bluglo white.

Replacing the brass strapping on the bow. After loosing chine caps on both sides at different times they were due. Getting this done while preparing the hull sides for a repaint. Got the stock from McMaster. Had to drill and countersink.

The guy that painted this boat last, somewhere around 20 YEARS AGO

/32 Comments/in , , , /by

Somewhere within a thread of a thread of a picture I posted, we were talking about the hull of this boat. I personally talked to the guy that painted this boat last, somewhere around 20 YEARS AGO. He V groved the seams and then painted it with an epoxy type, 2 part paint (Interlux 800). I finally got enough spiders, mud daubers and duck poop off the top side of the boat that today I actually washed the starboard hull with soap in a bucket and a brush. And this is what it looks like after all the dirt and film is gone. #boatwithnoname
