PERFECT

Thank you.

Next question

If I found a 36 cat I liked and sent it to you could you change it from a RUB RAIL boat to seamless deck/hull.??

Lets presume its a 4 year old 36 NT.

I have some trimming to do then re-glass @ 74' feet of seam and fairing it back I do not use much fairing compound instead choosing to leave the outside Laminate surface proud and then grind it back with a special tool, a light skim coat of filler hand sand then Prime.

maybe you could do mine as a promo boat, and then when all the other PP owners want to get their boat done, you could kick me back some $$$$$$$
