You see a problem somewhere? The bottom will be painted last as it has to go in the water shortly after (<24 hours).

Yikes!
We're taking ours down to PYR in San Diego in about a month to have some under water work done. I keep thinking about painting a new boot stripe on our Superhawk, then I start reading this thread... It's like pulling on a loose thread on a wool sweater, pretty soon you end up with a pile of yarn.

We just spent a few days with the Picketts on Milk Money, now Ang wants to sell and get a Hat or something similar, maybe that will be more affordable....

WHAT? Why all the way down to San Diego for work? Another excuse to come south? Paint is paint.....you can do it anywhere as long as you control the spray environment.

Our goal is still to move to a 50-60 footer......but we'll see. It might be easier to get a 1/4 share in a boat, or just charter one and plan real trips in unknown (to us) places. Maybe even charter this boat out....

Boats down that way now anyway and we're planning some trips SOB, but we'll see how all that goes. Everyone is freaking out over the cartels.

Have you seen what the weather is like up here and where would we go on the Bay with that boat anyway, Sams? Dock space is too tight. We can't go to the City because I dont like the smell of patchouli oil and most courtesy docks only allow Hybrids or blowboats.

Dan at PYR owes me a favor or two so the work is gratis. And yes, it's another excuse to go south.
