Topsides painted

Yesterday we shot the first coat of Interlux Perfection on the topsides. It came out pretty good. Today the second coat went on.
















The reason for the tent is that the Port Captain did not want to let us spray - someone painted their boat and ten cars last time he allowed it! What a nightmare. We told him we would pay for any cars that inadvertently got sprayed and then erected the tent in the hope that the overspray would be minimal....so far no irate Mercedes Benz driver has sought us out.




















Mark Rogers Painting did the spraying. After trying twice ourselves and failing to paint the deck, Mark was a Godsend.
