Re: Stus-List [EXTERNAL] Re: boat painting in Washington NC

To me "Topsides" is from the water line up to the toerail/gunnel - so it is the sides and stern of the boat. Bottom paint goes on the bottom (which in my case ends about an inch or so above the actual waterline). The deck is the deck.

My topside paint job included painting the stern, the cove strip, the C&C stars & daggers, and the boot stripe (which is actually 3 stripes of decreasing width from about 4" above the waterline) all painted in red Alexseal. The rest of the hull was painted off white before the red portions were added. Yes, they removed the hardware (essentially the bow lights, stern lights, rear boarding step, and the boarding ladder and reinstalled after the paint job. They also removed and replaced the decals for the boat name and logos on each  quarter and the hail port and yacht club decals on the transom. I purchased the decals myself.

Since someone asked about the deck, I had that repainted, too. 

I had a soft spot in the core of the cockpit aft of the helm. Probably 12-14 square feet of core needed to be replaced. The outer skin was removed, the old core removed, the inner skin raised back up to make the deck surface level after the job was done, new core was installed (on my 38 there was actually a layer of balsa and a layer of plywood that totaled at least 3/4 inch thick), and the old skin was glassed back in place. Repair of the soft spot became the driver for repainting the deck. 

We used off white Interdeck (Interdeck with non-skid additive on the non-skid areas). The only hardware removed was the hand rails, the Nicro power vents, and the hardware for the dodger. Windlass, winches, genoa tracks, rope clutches, the base of the radar arch, radar pole, etc (da*n there is a lot of deck hardware) were all masked and painted around. My person attitude about removing the hardware is along the lines of  "If the core under the hardware is sound and there is no leak, why remove and rebed the hardware - and risk a new leak - just to put pretty paint where no one will ever see it?" I'd need to look up the cost of painting the deck, not including the core repair in the cockpit, if anyone is interested.

I am getting a bit confused.

“Hull” to me means the waterline and up, not bottom paint. The deck is the deck. “Topsides” is generic for anything that isn’t bottom paint.

So is $125/ft. the hull, the deck, or both?

Thanks!

Jim already jumped on your question. But, yes, I had the topsides painted in 2017 by William and Beau (the company name is Washington Yacht Service, but the phone number is the one below).  We/they used Alexseal paint (similar to Awlgrip but much less expensive). I’d need to check but I think it cost $125 per foot.

Some time ago someone posted the price to get a boat painted in NC that was WAY under anything around here.

Does anyone recall the name of the yard that does this?
