this boat is almost complete today we applied the bottom paint (interlux VC performance epoxy with teflon ) and just need to apply the clear gloss coat on all the teak. what you see on the teak in the pics is clear epoxy. I am tryin to come up with a seat for the stearn with dry storage under and folddown back rest. the color of the boat is awlgrip aqua mist on the outside and cloud white interior with a 50/50 mix of the two on the nonskid. we are very proud of the boat and glad to see it up on whaler central.

Great job! I am just getting ready to continue the restoration of my 18' Outrage. I have finished the teak and done any patchwork required. I have been puting off the painting for fear of screwing it up. I think I may have new inspiration now. Once you launch this baby you should have the nicest boat on the water.

Wow! Thanks for the pics. You're living a dream - while I'm in a cubicle waiting for 5:00 so I can go home and tweak on my old Montauk. I get to Charleston on occasion. I'd love to see some real restoration work.

The clear coat on the epoxy would best be a very resistant UV clearcoat. After I put 3 coats of epoxy on my wooden boat with okume ply and exotic woods the finsih coats of 3 layers of quality varnish was beautiful for one year and then started fogging and hazing under the coats throught the epoxy. After more time the topcoat began its typical scabbing. I had to sand it all off with mixed results. Now I would simply oil and be happy periodically oiling with a rag. And I would use pure oil not one with varnish that adds gloss. I learned my lesson. For harher environments I like Cetol for more troublefree maitenance

Started my 22 last week. All new African Mahogany in the gunnels, new fuel tank coming along with a complete rebuild and customized console. Hull will be shot with awlgrip oyster white .Does the aquamist have much blue color or is it a brighter white?
