Upgrades

It is reported by the owners that in 2000 the hull gel-coat and outer layers FRP were removed due to extensive blistering, which is normal for this vintage vessel. It was allowed to dry out for approximately a year’s time, and renewed to industry standards and practices. The vessel was epoxy sealed and finished with Awlgrip marine paint.
