Spraying just isn’t going to happen to be honest. This is what will happen hopefully
looks very good, well done!
did you also paint the top of the h/t?
Just caught up with this thread, regarding the android tablets as chart plotters, aside from being hard to read in bright sunlight, they also don't tolerate getting hot like a dedicated chart plotter.
I used to use a Sony Xperia tablet running navionics and it did work, but would overheat in direct sunlight and either completely shutdown, or reduce the speed of the cpu to such a slow speed that it was virtually unusable. This was in mallorca though, so maybe in the Irish sea you'll be OK.
I have to say, it’s a good looking boatRed is dead!
just the first coat of primer but so much happier! As it’s single pack, I might leave it Matt. The surfaces are textured finish anyway except around the perimeter so I’ll see what a second coat looks like. Might just gloss the smooth perimeter.

In other news….the printing on the switch panels has rubbed off in part so I’ll be doing it again with a clear layer over the top to protect the ink. It was a proof of concept project anyway and I can get the finish better.
Mercury Vessel View device arrived. Works a treat with the tablet app.
Removed acrylic screens installed by the previous owner and cut them down lower. They are off getting tinted.
the hull paint is hardening up so wet sand over the next week or so.

An excellent job. Well done.
When you’ve finished can you pop down to Plymouth to do a bit of polishing? It’ll be good practice for you
I will take that as a yes then. When will you be availableGiven your last experience of having someone polish your boat….I’ll have a low bar to get over!??
Why would Mr Googler want to go to Plymouth, when he could come somewhere hot to polish a boat?I will take that as a yes then. When will you be available
Why would anyone want to go to Plymouth full stop! ?Why would Mr Googler want to go to Plymouth, when he could come somewhere hot to polish a boat?
You have to wonder if they have reached the stage where they are un-stealable
That is mental…..he’s the same height as seacock!
