Hello & Help
Posted: February 22nd, 2022, 4:53 pm
Fellow CYO,
I have been a member since 2020.
My name is Larry and I live on Lake Ontario in Ontario. My boat is 2000 404 which we have been upgrading (and enjoying) it since purchasing in 2019. So while I am snowed-in, the work is halted but the planning has continued.
I'm reaching out today because I'm at a loss regarding my foredeck. The previous owner attempted to paint the Port gunnel but the paint was improperly applied and now it is wearing away in places. I suspect the paint was either, not primed properly or was the wrong type of paint i.e. epoxy vs polyurethane or 1part vs 2part. I am going to remove it but now I must paint both gunnels to achieve balance. I suspect the Starboard gunnel is factory applied - hence my good question. Does anyone on this forum happen to know what Carver used to finish the surface? Also, the walkway is pebbled to prevent slipping.
Any help, suggestions, or whatever will be appreciated.
Cheers
