Below quoted from Pressure Drop: Drew Scott was helming a F-28.

"My crew is starting to swing around to pick me up when El Raton, in perfect control slides up beside me and asks if I would like to get picked up. They had already doused their chute and stopped beside me. I took their offer and got back into a boat (trying to stop a lightweight trimaran next to someone when it is blowing in the mid-20s is not easy so I figured I would not turn down El Raton.

My crew ably finished the race on Papillon, only one boat behind El Raton! And I had many adventures with El Raton, but that is their story to tell.

So, a great big thank you to the Ray Lotto and the crew of El Raton for pulling my soggy hide out of Suisun Bay!!

Subject: Interior Paint
Info: (9375 views) Posted: Tuesday 7-21-20 11:56:14 AM
The original interior is basically gelcoat with a deglosser added. Matching white is next to impossible unless you have the original gel. I tried several brands and most have a touch of blue or other color so they don't match, The deglosser was hard to find for polyester gelcoat for me. I then tried various paints without success. I gave up and sanded the paint off and used the closest gel match I had. I sprayed it on with a cheap sprayer.from Home Depot, I was just touching up small spots. Hope that helps. Bill #44 Mariner

:: Hi all,
::
:: Does anybody have a suggestion for an interior paint
:: that works well inside the boat? Ideally it is fairly
:: close in color to the original interior paint / gelcoat.
:: I would like to clean up a few spots in Salty Hotel
:: without having to repaint the whole interior.
::
:: Thanks,

:: John
