    Progress has been slow, my wife had a baby boy about 7 weeks ago! Hopefully a future boater, but a little way off....

    Wet sanding and buffing the clear didn't work, so I carefully wet sanded the clear and gave it a couple of new coats. The result is much better! Still far from perfect, but it is a race boat, so it's going to get run over at some stage anyway So now she's ready for final fit out and detailing.

    Can't wait to see it go, it adds another cat amongst the pigeons.

    Test-fitting my decals. Will have "RED BULL" along the sides of the cowl, and my race number on there somewhere and other bits and pieces.

    Clear coat is on, but didn't come out as nice as i'd hoped. Think I'm out of practice! Anyway, I'll wet sand, cut and buff the clear, it should be thick enough to manage that.

    The paint is just auto touch-up acrylic (Power Plus brand rattle cans) for the primer and colour coats. Today I hope to shoot the 2-pack clear using my touch up gun.

    Finally some paint! Going to clear coat tomorrow. Windscreen will be a decal some kind, once I figure out a shape. She's going to be Red Bull themed.

    Lots of surfaces on this boat make it look great (and hopefully handle great), but make masking a chore. I hate masking!

    Nearly there. Looking cool in white. What's the final colour going to be?
    Hope the weather clears on Monday for you.

    Glad you like it Mike.

    Progress has been slow, lots of rain and jobs to do around the house. Anyway, hull has been sanded and primed, ready for some filler and a final sand/prime. Cowl needs a final sand then prime.

    I've got Monday off work, so I'm hoping for some decent weather to complete the paint.
