Hey Richard - kind of a down the road question, but did you paint your build or leave most of the wood colors?

 

I'm asking after I stumbled across a section of the plan that showed "bumpers" on the side of the hull. The suggested wood was different than the hull wood. I am finding that the contrast between the two is not particularly appealing.

 

If you did paint most of the build, where did you get your ideas from?

Hi Mike,

 

I see that you've just looked at my build log, so you know that the outside of the hull was painted, but most of the rest of the boat was left natural. 🙂. I now have no idea where I got the colour scheme from - I think it is fairly typical of boats of that time.

 

Cheers

Richard
