Construction Update:
After the painting, my biggest challenge will be turning over the boat without damage.

A quick update on the progress of my Bandido. After much sanding, enough was enough and I started the process of painting. Below the water line I have used an 2 part epoxy, anti-foul copper based paint (maroon colour). Sanded back it exposes the copper and reduces fouling. Other than periodic cleaning, I should not have to repaint for several years. Above the water line I have a deep maroon colour with white sides. Overall, not a bad finish. Next task is to turn over!
