Brian Posted August 27, 2017 Author Report Posted August 27, 2017 Moving from dry store at Rockley to F pontoon at Cobbs. Quote
Maverick Martin Posted August 27, 2017 Report Posted August 27, 2017 Megabyte look the DB's Brian, see you on the dark side or would that be in the bar Jim 1 Quote
Jim Posted August 28, 2017 Report Posted August 28, 2017 I hope you get out more now Brian. Megabyte's looking great. Warriors are a superb boat. Have fun. Jim Quote
Gazza Posted August 28, 2017 Report Posted August 28, 2017 Brian , did you have to scuff the hull up to apply the ant-foul or can it be primed on a smooth gel-coat ? just thinking about doing the same but I was wondering what the reverse process would be like, (re-sale price etc) my previous warrior had been anti-fouled and it was a blooming nightmare getting the hull clean again. good luck on Megabytes new home, Gary Quote
Jim Posted August 28, 2017 Report Posted August 28, 2017 Gary. Thinking of coming to Cobb's ? Or Staying over Christchurch way. Pluses & minuses for trailer & pontoon but Jacqui hates all the " getting ready " before we can go out. If I was on a pontoon I'd get out a lot more but you need to get the use to justify the cost. Decisions . . . . . decisions . . . . Good to see you're still about ! ! ! Jim Quote
Gazza Posted August 28, 2017 Report Posted August 28, 2017 I'm still about jim, I've been at rocky dry stack for nearly 2yrs now, its ok there but like Brian says it would be nice to get out in the evenings at short notice, also they close at xmas so you have to make a decision to leave it on the pontoon or not . Its just a big step to anti-foul or not (pontoon berthing forever or not) why don't you try at rocky for 1yr and see how you get on ? call the expense an adventure and it won't hurt so much when am i gonna see you out there ? lots of plaice at the moment close enough for you Gary Jim 1 Quote
Jim Posted August 28, 2017 Report Posted August 28, 2017 I'd love to get out Gary. Tiddler's been out once this year. Too much going on at home ! I may get a go at the plaice. We'll see. Nice to hear from you again. Jim Quote
Brian Posted August 28, 2017 Author Report Posted August 28, 2017 Hi Gary I got them to pop me in the water so I could mark the water line. I then masked 1.5 ins above the marks and sanded it to give a key. Then painted with Primcon and 2 coats of Interspeed Ultra 2. I used Trilux on the lower part of the engine bracket and trim tabs. Then "Echo Transducer Antifoul" on the transducer. Jim and Gazza 2 Quote
