Thank you! We couldn’t be happier with the outcome.
Good Work... as usual. Now you have a "Batman Style Hull".. Keep going!!
Thank you! 😂 we do! Didn’t see it but now I see Batman!
AWESOME! I bet you guys are thrilled :D Amazing difference a coat of primer makes compared to the splotchy of the fairing process. Congrats
Thanks! It’s a masssssive difference. Now onto sanding the primer down 😂
Awsome work guys!
Thank you, Ian! And thanks for watching.
Looks great!
Makes it look so complete!
Good work!
Thank you! Cheers!
that looks great! Must have been very satisfying.
It was! but now onto sanding it! again! lol
Hay Guys, Starting to look good! Some thoughts (as a professional boat builder), in the hope it helps you;
1) Not a good idea to paint both sides at the same time (as shown in the beginning of the painting sequence). It is better to paint one part of the entire hull (such as the bottom panels of one hull) then move and paint the other side. While it doesn't particulary matter for the under coats, it will show on the finish coats, so it is better to develop good painting habits from the start.
2) You could consider spray painting, it will give you a better and more even finish. If you start with the undercoats, will be fairly practised (especially if you watch a few YT videos beforehand) before applying the finish coats. If you don't like how the first finish coat looks, you can always get a professional to apply the final finish coat. The cost will be worth the finished look of the boat!
Hope this helps,
Professional Boatbuilder and Naval Architect
thank you as always for your comments we fully appreciate them. we understand what you mean and will definitely have to be aware of that when we paint! thank you again.
Cant wait to see this beast on water! Nice Job.
You and me both!
@@BuildingMVDauntless Sea trial this year?
@@BCB-Boats-Media oh dear Jesus we wish! Hoping 2022!
@@BuildingMVDauntless Good luck! 😎👍
Hull looks great with some paint on. Did you get better coverage with the second and third coats. 👍
We did! It just looks so nice to see it all one color. Can’t wait to paint it!
Sweet results... question, I have an old 16 foot whaler and i'm evaluating my process. I am currently still going through the boat with total fair. With this stuff going over top of the fairing compound now its technically impenetrable as far a water getting into the hull. If im gonna repaint the entire boat after this has been done it seems any topside paint for the interior is fine. What specific paint should you use for the exterior of the boat that can will be exposed to the water. Im not looking to use anti fouling on the sides as thats obviously not necessary. Any recommendations would be appreciated.
I’m not sure how impenetrable the fairing compound is, just like any unsealed fiberglass it is porous to an extent. Under the waterline it is recommended for I believe 3 coats of barrier coat. We used total protect for our vessel. As far as above the waterline we used a regular epoxy primer then we sprayed epiphanies paint over that. Any salt spray should wash right off of this. Alexseal is another comparable paint. Im pretty sure Andy with boatworks today did a comparison video on the two. Thanks for following along more videos coming soon 😊
What’s the engine make going to be.
The Honda 115 hp have counter rotations model and is great engine in fuel consumption
Planning on 2 Yamaha 70hp we have a few more months to look around before final decisions!
