new coat of paint

I could not stand the look of the latex house paint.  It just did not have the gloss that makes a first class job stand out, and it was very subject to abrasion.  So, today I stripped off the latex and repainted with Hi-Gloss White enamel by Benjamin Moore.  Using a roller, and tipping of with a nice brush yielded an excellent finish that I am sure will give this boat the attention it deserves.  Some wet sanding with 600 grit should yield a first class finish. 

One more coat to go with the varnish, and finishing the interior with a coat of the Kirbys battleship grey should give me a finish that is easy to sweep out or wash off.  Also need to finish sealing the seats.
