[QUOTE="Y_J, post: 375780, member: 14258"] OK.. Got the bottom done and Primed today then painted 1st coat of the upper exterior where it would be hard to get to with the boat right side up. Then got my buddy to help me pick it up and flip it over and sat down on the trailer where I then finished the rest of the upper exterior 1st coat. Tomorrow I'll give it a light sanding, clean it with the mineral spirits then put on the 2nd coat. After that's had a chance to sit for a while I'll put my floor template in and double check that before I cut the plywood. Woooot.. Suddenly feels like I'm making some progress.. Question for your thoughts. Currently the red paint follows the rivet line which will be masked for the bottom paint when I get that next pay day. The question is this. Do you think I should bring the red paint down on the front half of the boat in keeping with the same height that it is about mid ship rather than getting narrower at the bow? Just a thought I was considering but wanted to get your thoughts on it. Thanks for all your input so far, folks.. [/QUOTE]
