Hi Hal -- Very nice job - what a unique design is the transom, be sure and keep the pointy end heading toward the white water.....!  I lived 25 years in Colorado, mostly in the San Luis Valley through which the Rio Grande river flows through - Now that I'm into river boating I wished I'd have taken the opportunity to run the Rio Grande starting maybe in Creede, Co.  As I recall Fraser used to be called the "icebox of the nation" more recently I think Alamosa has claimed the coldest frozen spot of Colorado.  So very glad to be away from those cold winters.

Nice job on the boat, hope you have lots of opportunity to enjoy.

Thanks Rick. I used the Interlux Brightside paint. Just foam rollered on, with a light foam brushing to take down the bubbles. She gets 1 more coat on the interior and some hardware, then I think she'll be ready for the snow to melt! ( I know I will be!)

Beautiful job!  What paint did you use and how did you apply it? Brush, spray?
