Talked to the local yard today. Got a good price for painting but he uses what he called "Petit marina paint". He said it was high copper but not Ultra which I have used before. Any idea what he is using and if it is any good? In a high fouling area.

Everything loads up super small. I have to enlarge to read?

Joe, I thought it was you who had posted that Wiley ran this as a tight ship, quiet and the way he likes it but apparently that was someone else. Happy to admit my mistakes. That however does not change the fact that it is quiet here and you talk a lot about the bilge. The bilge can be fun and you know it and that is why you are still posting there.

welcome knots, missed your banning but a few there are influential. It is aweful quiet here.

Very nice!

Great concept Wiley and I hope this takes off for you and all of us. Perhaps some of the discouraging flotsam and jetsam which found a home here will wash onto another shore!

Armstrong all the way

I agree with Bob. It is a shame that there is not more exchange here and less of Joey and his silly long distance attacks on the bilge. As Joey told me a few months ago, "that is the way Wiley wants it".

Sure, tell him I said hello. My 60 days in band camp are almost up so I may see you guys again over there.

Where is FF these days? I take it he is among us banned from that other place. Too bad this one is so darn quiet...

and the cig in the prego wifes hand!

Builder there is truth to all of the above. Most boats take spray in certain conditions and the angle of running. That said, every CS including the DLV is wet. Low gunnels and little deadrise lend to this but the positive trade off is the ability to run skinny. If you had posed this question before you bought, you would have been told this in volume. I looked at the DLV's for a long time and spent much time on the CS owners site where every owner advised that they are very wet. It is just the deal with that style of hull, this is the con to the pro

Consult with the Manuf. before you do this.

Nope!

Too funny Bob..1,000 feet! Joe you seen obsessed with the bilge. If you are banned, how do you keep reading it?

Agree with Mist. If you do it once you will never do it again. That said, if you don't want to pay for sodablasting, use a commercial stripper and lots of sandpaper with an orbital. I see you plan to just wax afterwards, be advised that before the boat was painted it should have been sanded to take the paint. Thus, your hull will be rough and dull. Most folks who remove bottom paint, have the hull painted with a good marine exterior like Imron.

ok I figured PBR and FF not the same. Who is Harry?

Thankfully no Gort though!
