Looks great! Did you remove hook too? How about the shoe and loader, did you work around it or remove and reinstall it? I'm asking a bunch of questions 'cause that very thing is next winter's proj. It's starting too get too warm down here to do it now. Great job.

Looks good. Exscuse me for this maybe stupid ? , but what makes the speed coat a speed coat? How is it better than a nice new coat of emron or something?

Foggerjet, Yes I removed the hook, it had a good sized one! I also worked around the intake so there was no seems.
crf311, Thanks, its a Kachina 18footer
Dragboats, Thanks, its no tunnel but... And Hell Ya I am going to Shasta!
blown428fe, I am not sure. When I originally painted the bottom the whole thing was imron. I figured since I was staightening it I would jump on the speed coat band wagon! Its a Graphite coating that water cannot eat away. I see most of the Dragboat guys use it, maybe someone can explain why its so good?

that totally looks like shit if I was you I'd take that boat and sink it get yourself something better. I dont know why you would waste the time and money on making a turd shinny. You must be a fool or you were really really stoned. :hammerhea
