Re: Stus-List Gel coat crazing below waterline
Nice boat. I used to have one (1975). Your rudder looks different – it is bigger and kind of square – It is certainly not standard. An upgrade of sort?

This winter, I pulled the boat and had the hull soda blasted. There were many years of unnecessary anti-fouling paint built up and flaking off. After it was soda blasted, I found crazing of the gel coat everywhere. There were some gel coat blisters near the waterline. One side was worse than other for waterline gel coat blisters. I did some research online and talked to some local boat mechanics. The recommendation was just barrier coat, and fair the worse of the blisters. I also had a keel smile. I dropped the keep and rebidded the keel. I then put two coats of grey Interlux 2000e in gray. I then faired with some epoxy fairing the keel smile and waterline. I then did two more coats of white interlux 2000e barrier coat. Contrasting color helps ensure coverage. I put my first coat of Micron CSC in blue 1.5-2 hrs after the 4th coat barrier coat. Again, a contrasting color to ensure coverage. I then put on 3 coats of Micron CSC in shark white. So, next time I pull the boat, if I see any blue, I know to coat the boat. If not, I don't at anymore. Just before I splashed the boat, I cleaned off the depth transducer with acetone. I figure I will just cleaned the depth finder with a little scruby from time to time. I splashed the boat Friday! You can see pics at: http://hhsa.clubexpress.com/content.aspx?page_id=187_id=8237 I also did new running rigging. As luck would have it, the Yamaha 8 hp shifter broke after launch. I was lucky enough to tie up to the dock and take the partially apart and manually get it to shift in gear. I found the part on ebay. The next project are the windows and rebuild the head. -- Doug Ellmore, Sr. s/v Red Sky 1976 C 24 d...@ellmore.net ___ This list is supported by the generous donations of our members.

Re: Stus-List Gel coat crazing below waterline
Joe, Do you mean crazing or do you mean what some of us call gelcoat "pox"? Look here for pictures of "pox": https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B_sb5TfIENvsdlFYdGp0bnpjcTQ and here: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B_sb5TfIENvsQk91WFUzM3dvOTg Dennis C.

Stus-List Gel coat crazing below waterline
Hey All, Anyone have gel coat crazing below the waterline? Someone pointed it out today and said it could be a concern. I've had the boat for 3 years now and I know it didn't happen over the winter. I'm assuming it's been this way for years with no I'll affect. When the boat was surveyed in later 2014 it was bone dry on the meter and it doesn't sound wet now. Someone please put my mind at ease Boat is a 76 38. Thanks Joe Sent from my iPhone ___ This list is supported by the generous donations of our members.
