We’ll be over this hump soon guys. I went back and added filler to the deck in front of the hatches where there were some deep valleys. I’ve got the deck looking a lot better now. Probably gonna put some more slick sand on those areas tomorrow. Billy has sanded the entire trailer with 80 grit and it will probably be primed tomorrow.

Here’s what I’m talking about. This is outline left from where my stands were welded to my trailer crossmembers. It was welded all the way around on just about all of them. There was no rust in between there. Just bad rust from inside the square tubing. It would’ve been a lot better if they would have welded caps on the bottoms of the square tubing. But at one point do you stop on a boat trailer? LOL.
Plus this trailer was abused pretty bad, to be as new as it is... https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.off...a61e5f4db.jpeg |
Are you removing the deck/cabin hatches completely or just going to cut them in later?

Moving along, Billy got the trailer primed today. I sprayed some more slick sand on the deck and blocked it down, it’s a lot straighter now...

Man that looks so good, the top coat is going to be great

Wow! Looks so smooth! Are you gelcoating the slick sand after?

Thanks guys, no gel coat Jeff, urethane primer and paint. I got the rest of the engine compartment sprayed yesterday. Been blocking on the deck. Deck should be in urethane primer Thursday...
