Thanks everyone!

Today I gave Tipsy her first coat of gray Total Boat non-skid . I know there are pros and cons for using gray and to use non-skid on the entire cockpit but I decided the pros outweigh the cons . Plus it is thick enough to hide some of my fairing imperfections. I like how the gray , white and seafoam contrast with each other . Also the Bimini top I ordered is a light gray and should go well. I like this total boat nonskid product so much I will probably use it to paint inside the cabin.

That's a nice looking boat. You won't have to keep it tarped when not working on it for much longer.

It’s to hold his tarp up until her gets hatch and washboards completed.

That gray is light enough; it will not get too hot and easier on the eyes than white.

Yes, Tony, Jaysen is correct about the piece of PVC (hoop)

It is easy on the eyes for sure. Looking very good!
