new boat noosa cat re gelcoat question

[Casey Ison]

Giday fellas, recently purchased a new boat. Shes a 7 m Noosa Cat it has antifoul on it and im wondering what it would cost to get it regelcoated from bottom to gunnels? Otherwise I was thinking about 2 pak but yeah im not sure which way I would like to go. I have restored an old cruisecraft and sprayed it myself looked good but I am not 100 % sold on the 2 pak. Couple of pics of my old boat I did in 2 pak.

any advice or places to call for quotes etc would be great. Only wondering on a ball park figure it anyone has any idea on what it might cost.107259107260

Thanks Casey.

Re-gel coat will be expensive, simply because of the labour involved, it can't be just sprayed like paint, why not just get the anti foul removed?

[Casey Ison]

yeah mate I realise that it has to be stripped right back. yeah well that is another option I picked it up for a good price so I was thinking about getting it looking like new again but yeah.

Cheers

i may be wrong, but i think you can get it soda blasted. no idea on cost though!

My 8mt also had anti-fouling on it when I got it, and I rang around and got a price on Soda blasting the bottom for about $1500, that was several years ago, not sure what it would be now. Never ended up having it done though. Hope this helps.

yeah cheers fellas. yeah I know a couple of local blokes that do that I might ask for curiosity..

best avoid the soda blasting, seems to leave the gelcoat requiring a refinish (pitting) especially if he isnt a real gun at it.
I removed the antifoul on my 7 meter last year.
Message me if you want more info?
