OK After weeks of researching the removal of my old bottom paint including High end sanding equipment, soda blasting, chemical stripping ,rental of various blasting systems, All of which would have gotten the job done correctly all with varing levels of labor involved.

I finally decided on Atlantinc Green Pro's.( a sponsor here) ....AND I"M SO GLAD I DID...

Dale ( owner/operator) arrived on time, setup his equipment and got to work...the result are just plain STELLAR..( I will post pictures as soon as I can get under the boat) consistant, carefull & clean....the bottom was left with about an 80 grit finish. No burn thru in any place...When Dale did find something to note he stopped and pointed it out. A perfect job done in a professional way, I would recommend his services to anyone needing a job like this done, the price was by far lower than any other method I could calculate. factoring my time and materials. ( not to mention the mess or toxic residue)

As a testament to his professional style, there was a crowd of fellow boat owners forming thru the day to see the process being done, I'm sure he will land a few more gigs in our yard...There simple is no better way to get results like this, If it wasnt for the wet ground under the boat after his final wash you would not know he was there.

Thanks for your attention.

Greg, thanks for the kind words.

And it was a pleasure doing boat bottom.

Thanks

Wish I knew of someone that uses the Farrow System in the Lake Erie area, I need my bottom stripped and would love someone to use that system on it.

Dale if you had to guess what do you think the dead rise is on my bottom, i'm gonna start securing the parts to do the transducers and was curious, I'll measure before I order......... just thinking.

Husky – Can you recommend someone in the Eastern CT. area?
Thanks

Dale, have your customers had any luck wet sanding the boat bottom and restoring a no bottom paint bottom to their boats?

Greg, I've done so many boats in the last few weeks that the only thing I remember about your boat's bottom was that box void on the bottom.

Still that's a nice boat you have there.

Normally when we remove bottom paint.... it's so our clients can start fresh and repaint the bottom to eliminate flaking or boat bottom paint adhesion failure.

So no, we haven't done anything like what you're requesting.

I go as far as western Connecticut, and no I don't know anyone in eastern Connecticut who has this process.

Sorry
Dale

I understand Dale n.p. I'll measure it.... Yeah If I told you what I paid for it, Maybe I did tell you...That boat was the steal of the season...Again thanks for the great job...filling in that box is job one when the weather breaks...propspeed on the running gear and the full treatment of barrier coat and bottom paint...gonna see what I gain after the fairing blocks and that box is filled in..last season when I bought the boat and the bottom was clean ( no growth) but I suspect the bottom paint was very tired cause we were getting growth not long after.... was making 20-21 knts at 3k rpm...and as the season went on we lost a knot or two..I'm hoping to get up to 23 knts at same RPM...with a newly faired bottom and less paint, clean running gear...I think its possible....
