Topcoat
Today the first topcoat went on the bottom of the hull. Behn 100% acrylic porch paint. Two more to go. Little need for antifouling bottom paint in Lake Champlain. Kept the Cherokee in the water all last summer and it was barely dirty at haulout
this is a modification of the original design with the pilot house moved closer to the stern and directly above the LCB (longitudinal center of bouancy)
This blog is about the building and eventual launch of the GT22, a Bateau.com design done by Jacques Mertens of Vero Beach FL.
And about all of the other boats and boating projects to come to the shop of Wonderdog Boatworks
The most recent project is Tumblehome Nina, a version of Bateau.coms Nina with a bit of Ninegret and the Handy Billy
