Please keep this pics coming as you progres.

On this forum we are suckers for building pics and personally I think it a real kick to see owners build their own high performance boats while big beach cat companies are telling it they can't do it.

Niiiccee! I'm getting close to painting mine, what primer and paint did you use? And roughly how much did it cost to get it done by a pro?

We have a company here called paint supplies and the primer is two pack amercoat cc25 at $85 and the top coat was a car two pack called eurocryll with the hardener was $140 this paint was over stock at a run out price would normally be $110 per liter.Remember white is the cheapest paint. The boat took 3 coats to get the finish and was done by my cousin on a contra deal(i have to install his spa) but in saying this we had some quotes and was told with paint around $800.00 to get it painted. This was drop it off and pick it price. the picture provided is of first coat being applied.
