I've seen your lovely yacht! I couldn't miss the C&C star, was the first thing
I saw while driving through the first time! Of course, Harry already told me
you were there so I looked for the name too! There goes the neighborhood! LOL
I'm right up against the road (well was before stripping) just before the last
row. Black Hull, Rum Runner on the side. I'll be down there on Wednesday if
you're around. I go down almost every weekend, too, for a few hours. would
great to say hello! Danny

Hi Chuck, I have my boat in Mattapoisett at triad boatworks. The walnut was a
lot less than $5000! They gave me a per ft number but I can't remember it
right now. However, the complete bottom job start to finish with materials was
about $5k to $6K If I pull my notes out later I'll give you better indications
of cost. Danny

Chuck:
I have no first hand experience with either soda or walnut blasting.� I
did however have the bottom of my boat 'dry ice blasted' to remove the
antifouling paint down to the gelcoat.
Dry ice blasting is a very quick, clean and effective method to strip bottom
paint.� Perhaps another option if there is anyone in your area that does
it.

Can I ask who did the walnut stripping on your boat and at which yard?�
I�m having my �new� 1983 Landfall 35 brought down from the
North Shore of Mass to the South Coast in early January and the bottom paint is
flaking off in chunks, revealing the shiny original gel coat underneath in most
places.� I would say that the paint over shiny gel coat method was not
terribly effective for adhesion.
� Speaking to the service manager at Concordia about soda blasting, he
tells me that the soda medium leaves a very rough finish on the bottom that
takes a significant amount of labor to prep the bottom afterwards to allow
bottom paint go on nice and smooth.� Perhaps he was also implying that
the boat should have a barrier coat added as well� either way, with soda
blasting and subsequent bottom prep, we were talking� in excess of $5000.
� With that info, I had planned to chip off as much of the old paint as
possible, sand down the rest using and orbital sander with a vacuum attachment,
leaving just enough �tooth� on the gel coat hull surface to
repaint.� It would be a lot of work, but I could do it in my yard and
build my upper body strength at the same time!
However, the walnut shell medium sounds like it may be the ticket if it is less
invasive to the gel coat than soda blast and if I basically want to start with
a blank canvas of a hull to prep and paint. ��Would love to hear
from others that have used the walnut shell method and what they�ve done
to prep afterwards.
Best,
