Hey, my name is Nike and I bought an aluminum 37 foot sailboat in Panama in 2013 that I named KARL. I spent a good year refitting it, mostly by myself and with the help of awesome friends, and then (mostly) solo sailed my sailboat around the western Caribbean.
In 2016, I crossed the Panama Canal, had a major engine break down, a near sinking experience and a serious foot injury which got me stuck along the Pacific coast of Central and South America.
In this Episode, we paint the hull of my Reinke Super 10 with a layer of epoxy primer and two layers of copper free Antifouling. The current covid19 situation makes it tricky to go into a marina, so I take advantage of my twin keels and a strong moon tide to let my boat dry fall to get the paint job done.
After scraping and grinding the hull, I clean the bare aluminum spots and treat them with a slim layer of etch primer followed by a couple of layers of epoxy primer.
Once this is done, Maria and Paul give me a hand to slap on the Total Boat epoxy primer and the Total Boat copper free antifouling. We just finish in time before the tide comes back in.
Next up is cleaning my annodes and propellor and once I am done with that, Paul and I paint a second layer of antifouling
Karl’s bottom is looking great and it was a challenging but rewarding project to work with extremely short drying times between tides and rain showers. I am happy it all worked out but I surely don’t recommend this procedure.
And just to be clear, this procedure is surely NOT recommended by Total Boat, so don’t try this at home!!!
Enjoy and Ahoy,
Nike & Karl
