I do not envy the gel coater who sprayed the difficult areas of the hull. I sprayed for almost 6 yrs. Those hard chines at the bottom are tough to get even coverage even using a milgauge!

Awesome stuff Richie. I remember first time admiring your boat down in eagle hawk neck chasing bluefin. I've seen you a fair few places. You drive that boat pretty hard. Can't wait for this season. Got a full month on the east coast in January. Hope it's a good bite might see you there.
