Re: Interior Ideas for 1976 F32

I would and I have used Cetol inside, it will suspect it will out live the boat, I prefer cetol natural and the clear to give it allot of depth and add the polmer to anyplace you walk and could potentially get slippery, here are steps with 4 coats cetol natural and 3 cleat and the gunwale with 4 coa...

Re: Interior Ideas for 1976 F32

other than personal preference probably not, probably stays a little dryer enclosed in the salon, and that Cetol is great, 6 coats is proper and to really make it last throw some cetol clear over the top, youll have a deep rich finish that will last many years, the open model here is on its 3rd year...

Re: Interior Ideas for 1976 F32

The previous owner of the boat had primed allot of the wood so unfortunately it was half ruined. Its a party boat, and what better on a party boat than a bar and a tap haha, She only makes a half dozen or so trips from the dock a year. Mine is original teak, a little dark, cetol natural instead of t...

Re: deck rot

I've used it, it's basically fiberglass resin, didn't help the 2 boats I tried it on, can't really firm up a void when the wood rotts and turns to dust, I'd imagine it would be good for transom repair. A friend filled a void in his floor with pure fiberglass resin, that worked well and cheap

Re: Dewatering an F-26

How could you begin to repair the damage on a boat that sank like that. Stringers are now saturated, wiring harnesses as well, engine, fuel tank upholstery. I would think that you'd pretty much have to strip it down to an empty shell and start again. This boat is probably long gone by now, I saw th...

This past weekend I went to Block Island to see a 1976 Trojan 30, Clean Machine but she was a big disappointment. Shes really just a parts boat at this point. The guys asking $500 I think he would be lucky t...
