Thanks for the response, I received email from Don earlier in the week. He said he only does small repairs and most people paint and not gelcoat bottoms.
Thanks
Chris

No I have not done much just small chips when not binglazy or working...
got half the bottom sanded today what a job in the heat sun up to sun down..Took my time tried to do a good job.
Usually just fish the boat.. You mentioned that most just awlgrip the bottom.. I talked to a bunch of commerecial buddies of mine 99 percent said the same.. I just cant see ding that to this hull.. I have been through hell and back in this one.. Literally especially off boynton day and night. Im on the water about thirty or more hours a week.
But more than likely im gonna go against the grain and Gelcoat..
Thanks for all your help Caymen much appreciated Ill shoot some pics in a week or two and try to post...
Thanks once again Chris.
