I think for my 15' Tango skiff I'm going the "house paint" route. Black 15 year on the bottom, gray non skid for the interior bottom, and dark green Brightsides, for the gloss, on the hull exterior. Inside hull and seats to be determined. The gunnel and knees will be mahogany and finished bright.Everett Davehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14904028646419231375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3304128809684444390.post-68637218361682769782012-08-18T00:10:59.348-07:002012-08-18T00:10:59.348-07:00It looks gray to me.

I remember reading Dave Curtis' PocketShip blog long before starting my boat. I'd rejoice with him in every victory, and suffer through every setback. <br /><br />Right now I'm reading a number of boats written by cruisers/liveaboards, imagining what it'd be like to live aboard. It has definitely captured my fancy, there'd be no room to build more boats.Jon Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14561004449723482540noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3304128809684444390.post-72349924400805617882012-08-13T21:31:02.026-07:002012-08-13T21:31:02.026-07:00OK, That worked better than I thought! Thank you ...OK, That worked better than I thought! Thank you for the morale boost...other than Malcolm and "Everett Dave", I reall wasn't sure if anybody was out there!<br /><br />So, Clue 1. I really liked a colour I saw on a proa. I think a PocketShip would look great in said colour, but in the end it was louder than I wanted, so I avoided that Madness.<br /><br />Anyone else reading?Jon Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14561004449723482540noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3304128809684444390.post-86926830172529563862012-08-13T02:58:05.351-07:002012-08-13T02:58:05.351-07:00Definitely been reading with interest!

Sadly I don't have space/time to take on a pocketship at the moment (though I'm having a crack at a kayak), so I'm living the dream through the blogs of others, and its been great to see how you're getting on. Hope you enjoy every minute of it!
