Mate that is sweet. When are you in Brissie, I have a Boomerang that needs your touch

Thanks for the comments. I did not use any trade services apart from wielding new tanks and a compression post. For the white I used wattle paints 2 pack and rolled it to perfection. I choose 2 pack as it has the longest life span with out having to re-coat. The light timber is Qld ash and the darker is good quality marine ply all coated 5 times with wattle espotol. I did roll some light grey single pack around the galley area which now is due for a re-coat 5 years on.

I like the white gloss finish, easy to clean and reflects a lot of light, making for a bright easy to see and live with interior.

When I look at boats for sale I reject most of them for their dark and dingy interiors, caused in part by using very dark timbers and also use of too small a size of hatch and port lights.

I totally agree. The first thing I did when I brought my Dunc was remove the dark veneer and second was to cut 4 hatches into the deck and also adding more windows. Problem being now is that I get to much light on the hot days which causes heat. Which causes me to drink more cold beer!
