Classic Mobo - full gelcoat respray

[justapheonix]

If my plans come to fruition, I shall soon(ish) take ownership of a classic English mobo in need of a full gelcoat respray above the boot-top.

So, does anyone have experience of a reasonably-priced company, anywhere south of the Scottish border, who care about classic boats, and know about spraying, please?

(I'm also looking - perhaps - for a partner in ownership of what should be a real head-turner of a classic, to be based Thames, Solent, or nearby...)

In the Solent you have Osmotech at Hamble point that do a nice job with Awlgrip.

what is she?

Aaah, I looked at Osmotech a while ago and didn't like the atmosphere in their shed - lots of 'homers', generally not as tidy or well-managed as I'd have liked. Desty's, on the other hand, looked superb, and indeed did a really good job.

I'm loking to avoid the Solent if possible, as prices there are inflated, and the boat is presently in the north...

As for what she is, there are deals to be done, so I'd rather keep schtum for now, but rest assured she's a classic, and all being well, will be fabulous!
