Re: Eric's C21
Are you feeling better?
Currently building Jacques Mertens ST21 "Skinnydip". Boating adventures: Splash testing and using 'Skinnydip, as a basis of further building refinement; Adams 44’ sailing sloop "Great Sandy" (cruising and maintaining); Iain Oughtred Feather Pram "Mini Dip" (building); Jacques Mertens R13 "Wood Duck" (built and due for maintenance).
Re: Eric's C21
Yes, Very much so. No headache what so ever!!
Re: Eric's C21
Just finished a 20 ounce batch of primer. I got it all done except the last 11 feet.
You can see where the second coat overlap the first here.
Transom.
Sorry for the dark picture. It's raining outside so I didn't roll the back door up for more light.

I see you are ready to shoot the first cat that gets near your wet paint.
Really liking the looks of your girl in primer. Paint should have her ready for the dance

Damn fine job sir! Pinholes aside, she's about as fair as I've seen a boat that size. And the pinholes should fill easy enough.
Re: Eric's C21
Eric, really well done!! Hope you are happy with the results!! Also sent you an email with photos of Center Consoles at a liquidation center near us!! Just as an example!! Jeff
Re: Eric's C21
Thank Y'all Fuzz, Jamie and Jeff!!
I'm pretty Happy with the hull after priming. Does it need some touch up?, sure, but not much.
The second coat is complete! YAY!!
I'm gonna let it rest until Monday. By then the primer should be cured and I can do some fill work with quick fair.
Thanks to every one for helping me get this far!!

Re: Eric's C21
That looks great! I'm kind of surprised, even recognizing how careful you were being, that you didn't end up seeing about a dozen new places to attend to. What a fine job you did.
