Gene and I were able to meet up to repaint my boat. I ordered the FME from Lou and he had it there by 9:30 on Friday which was great since I didn't get there till after 12:00. One less thing that we had worry about. Gene said that the paint was great. No clumps, looked fresh and that it should go on without a hitch.
Kyle doing some sanding on the deck
Gene showing Kyle how to use the sander to smooth out the finish prior to painting.
Kyle was an instant pro......
My boy made me very proud with his work ethic. He was very excited doing this. Ira might recognize the shirt. Got it last year on my way home from Habitat Flats.
Gene giving the boat a once over before applying the paint.
Finished product. Per Gene and Lou's input, I decided to go with the gray to blend with the water and I will use natural vegetation to camo the top of the deck.
I can't thank Lou and Gene enough for their time and wisdom for choosing the color. Thanks to Lou for getting the paint there before it was needed. Gene went above and beyond the call of duty in helping me get this done. I truly appreciate you taking the time to help me with this. You are a true gentleman. I have a few things up my sleave for you as well. Take care and thanks again. See ya soon.
