i used zinc sulfide for the primer then i used good ole rustoleum with a thinner so it would not bubble up. it took about 4 coats. i am looking for a 16ft wide bottom also to mod
i started this project last year and finally finished it three weeks ago.it took alot of sanding and painting but she turned out pretty nice. i tried her out two weeks ago with a 3 horse yamaha and she did great.
i also have another aluminum 1959 texas maid i am working on. too many projects. i have stripped this one down and started sanding it. it is lots of work
i have already completed most of the boat.i sanded and painted it. i also put new wood floors. still need seats and maybe some outdoor carpet. i have a 3 horse yamaha on it. i am going to try it out friday to see what other mods i can do to it. i will try to post some pics later.
