Hull # 87's deck gets the second round of paint. Anti skid will be sprayed later this week. ETA to splash is next week.

David,

I'm interested in a companionway hatch. I sent you an e-mail to dave@j30.us but received no response.

Ryan

P.S. Wow does your deck look impressive! I've considered pulling everything off my deck and repainting it... and... uhh... well... ;-)

Can you explain the rolled non-skid procedure. I'm just trying to get as much info (lessons learned) as possible. I'm about to do the same thing.

The antiskid used on hull # 87 is a spray on using AwlGrip based silica formula. The silica is designed to "float" in the paint.

I am catching up on e-mail, so those who sent me a correspondance, I'll respond very soon. I have been working 24 x 7 to get the boat ready for a race in June.
