why paint a boat

[Wahoo]

when you can have this done, stickers the length of your boat, hell of alot cheaper than painting

In responce to paint or not there are many people who invest many bucks in a platey that want them looking good and easy to clean but must be painted by a ( boat painter) so that you dont have problems later on due to poor workmanship. Ive seen it so to many times a bad paint job that can cause u major greef and empty pockets.The advantage is that u have silaflex put in all areas( eg under gunnels inner joints roofs etc) which seals off salt water and can stop major corrosion.Your end product not only looks good but is mainly free of nastys attacking your investment. i must add that in the fitup it is a must be go to all measures that any stanless bolts ,screws, or hardware MUST BE ISOLATED with special nulon washes and duralack to stop corrosion. The only disadvantage is you have to clean it when u get home after a long seccion of fishing.See ya:D

Hey Daz great pics esp the one on the water, must have been a good wave if you snuffed the nose and got green water over, glad I stayed home!

One Q is the angle of the chopping board an illusion?, if not what do you think of it built like that?

very nice Daz, loks the goods and lots of room ,

[Tassie JR]

nice rig there daz what model garmin gps is that.

cheers tassie JR

[disorderly]

Thats a serious fishing boat,daz.
Heaps of room and easy to stay connected to those big spanish macs when they start doing circles round the boat.
When you had the motor fitted did you get a chance to give it a good workout?It will be interesting to hear some performance/mileage figures.
Do you have any plans for a canopy?
Also wondering where you got that cutting board insert from.

Now all you need is for the weather gods to be nice!

Scott

[ffejsmada]

That's a top looking boat you've got there Daz.

Hi Daz,
That is a very nice rig.
I have a plate boat on the way & it too will be coloured alloy. Paint is nice but a bigger sounder & plotter is nicer.
I like the steering wheel. Could you please advise me of the brand & model?

[fishing111]

It looks like a pretty decent deadrise at the buisness end.

[Greg P]

Daz - good to see her on the water


That hull shape looks familiar :-X;D;D;D;D

[deadbeatloser]

mate that is a bloody fine looking cc boat,happy hunting

thanks Peter, i would never paint an alloy boat, to many long term probs
thats what i think is money better spent on GPS / sounder
the wheel i brought from withworths, 6 spoke code number 82055

Very nice investment crackerjack.

But I would still like to know one of the original questions about boat grapics.

Do they fade quicker than normal decals???
