August 2023 : Marking Waterline , Hull Cradle , Skeg , Keel & Bulb Plug

Marking out the Water Line

I boarded the bottom sections of the boat before I marked out the water line

Note the high tech stand for my laser level 

I raised the water line approximately 100mm above the design waterline 

to allow for loading, etc

Below Water Line Paint 

I roller applied 2 coats of this very tough epoxy primer then sanded before 

spray applying a 3rd coat. This stuff is a tough as nails. 

It is a PPG product : Sigmaprime 200
