Welcome! What a great looking boat! I would love to see some additional pictures. I'm trying to get some ideas for the cockpit and interior of my 10 meter. I searched for days trying to find a picture of a ten meter with a light yellow or light blue hull. I was having trouble deciding if I would like it or not and never could find a pic. I just placed my awlgrip paint order earlier this week and went with "clould white". I think you may have just cost me another couple hundred in paint! Your hull looks great.

Found the link to your other pics. Can't believe it was painted in the water. I dont believe i've ever seen a "Sedan open" Is it all custom or did trojan actually make it? Ive only seen them with the enclosed salon.

Looking at those pics, I wonder how the neighbours felt about the paint spray on the water sticking to their boats.
You can't tell me that it didn't stick at the waterlines.
Unless the plastic wrap was sunk into the water, but it doesn't look like it.
Not to mention the environmental mess that created.

Notice the tarp on the boat next to it ? that covers the canvas but what about the rest of the boat ?

there is a containment boom around the boat but how do you suck ths paint out of the water ??

That doesn't contain the paint that floats on the air over it, containment booms are for oils etc.

I agree , as it won't soak up the paint.

to me it looks like one of the boat yards in mexico, not a marina. maybe something similar in the southeast?

I had my previous boat in the Baja Naval boat yard in Ensenada Mexico a few times for bottom paint and other owrk, the marina and the water look the same except without a cover

Aside from all the issues involving other boats, environment, etc., why would anyone even want to do that type of work in the water.

take it from me, i've waxed that hull and HATE DOING IT !

She's one bigass hull.

too big for me to think about PREPPING and SHOOTING in the water.

Makes me wonder what she looks like close up.

but that said,

the chiffon yellow really does look damn good on her !

i'd love to see more shots of this unique vessel
