Hi
i have bought a
catalina 30 i am lucky to have only discovered minor problems except a bit or
deck rot around a stanchion and mybee the leaky windows.
my question is the
hull was thought to have been ground down to glass, new gel coat, and interprotect, then a coat of hard
paint, then coat of
anti fouling paint
my questions are
1. to put a new coat, of
anti fouling paint on, should i remove the old one too the hard paint it is chipping and flaking or do i just paint over it,
if i have to remove it how should i do that
2. i am new to
boating ,so how should i care for the bottom of this
boat
thanks for your input
over time i'm sure i'll have more questions
later
