I just finished putting primer on the bottom of my pygmy boats arctic tern and the first coat of varnish on the rest. I am now wondering if the primer/paint combo on the bottom will be worth all the extra effort (time, weight, money, etc)? As opposed to just throwing varnish on the whole thing? Any thoughts? The system three primer is thick, so I guess durability will be enhanced over varnish. but it will ad lots of weight and lots of time I could be out on the lake will be spent letting the stuff cure out. Heres the joke: Two Eskimos sitting in a kayak were chilly, but when they lit a fire in the craft, it sank proving once again that you can't have your kayak and heat it, too. ------------------------- Shawn Servoss Prineville, OR 97754 *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
