I sprayed on a single coat of the s3 yacht primer to show me how close I am to paint. Lots of pin holes, but better than I thought.
Oh by the way it's freaking hot

Looking good!!
Re: CS 25 Stuart FL
Looks absolutely great from here If they are just pin holes you can probably fill them in with another round or so of primer.

Yea I like that high build primer. This time I used a new ( good quilty ) hvlp gun. What a difference. No orange peel. I have had a hard time in the past sanding out all the orange peel with out sanding through the primer. Much better with a smooth coat of primer.

That's a heck of a trolling motor. Love the picture. It looks like something someone in my neighborhood would rig.

I have seen a weed wacker with a prop for sale on Craigslist.

Re: CS 25 Stuart FL
Hi, I hope you have not put your boat in the water without telling us - you are soooo close. Have you bought a bracket and motor yet? Saw an interesting "internal" bracket concept on a big cabin cruiser. The guys built a bracket from 50mm stainless tubing and then boxed it in. I thought it was part of the hull until I opened the inspection eyes at the rear.
Is it to warm to post pics?
Cheers,
Antonie
BTW, I think the big 36V industrial battery drill from Bosch will work great with your concept design.
