While living aboard on anchorage I decided to try to paint the interior fiberglass portion of our sailboat. This is an entertaining DIY which should provide ...

I don't like the southwest wind because
I'm on my secondary anchor it's gonna be
upwards of 34 knots 34 knots and above
she rolled in quick I had all my laundry
it's all wet I had almost step 1 make a
mess make a big old mess actually I'm
thinking this is gonna be like playing
Tetris just go from one area to the next
but I've got her stripped so we got a
laundry day laundry hanging got got a
meal in there cheffing some laundry I
gotta fold the dry stuff and we've got
the prep work underway here I got some
120 grit sandpaper on a little block of
wood right here I'm gonna just sand it
first
and yeah so I'm gonna be doing that for
a while
Clorox bleach gonna wanna hear pray the
bleach water come in with the rag here
and just boom
[Music]
[Music]
you know gotta be ventilated so I have
this I have my fan running and if it
starts to rain or get crazy I'm gonna
obviously have to just postpone this
this rust-oleum marine coating topside
paint we're going white semi-gloss
fiberglass wood and metal this is what
I'm gonna put water in to rinse my brush
out got mixing sticks and yeah I am
gonna go old-school I'm gonna go just
straight brush no roller just this
beautiful brush here we got no room
anywhere except right here this is where
I sleep this is where I do everything
now it's said to mix it up really well
so that's what I'm doing that's strong
pungent yeah I've got ventilation I mean
I should probably have a gas mask but
there it is there's the first stroke I'm
probably gonna do a few layers so my
goal here is gonna try to get it pretty
thin because I know if this stuff is
thick it doesn't dry it just is goopy
it's a good color nice and white whoa
whoo I might be a little loopy when I
come back though whoo I got ventilation
all right we've got the first layer on
I'm gonna do another layer once this
dries I can see how it'll be a lot nicer
okay I'm gonna wear this and I'm going
to breathe through my nose I got a
little weird like feeling in my throat I
don't know if it's from the paint or
what but I decided we decided I'm gonna
do this side well this side dries okay
my eyes started burning so I'm gonna
wear some goggles too um I figured since
it's gonna take a little while for this
to dry I might as well just do this hair
do the entire thing one layer and then
just let it dry I'll probably have to go
get a few more cans of paint so my goal
now is just gonna beat it to get the
entire area just get one layer I'm just
glad you guys are here to keep me
company you know but up to be doing this
alone it's nice to have friends here
in the paint party gonna have to make it
stretch
of course we got weather rolling in I'm
trying to get this first layer done I'm
not gonna have ventilation once it
starts dumping here she comes boy
rolling in forgot the tape this part up
weathers coming in I'm surprised that
Masseria
[Music]
raise your shelves barely beat it
dumping the time is now for forty four
five six sunset is at seven fifty so I
ran out of paint and I want to do the
second layer tomorrow in the morning and
I don't have a bike yet I'm gonna get
one but right now my plan is to run
instead go to the dinghy dock run I'll
run to Home Depot get what I need and
get back and try to get on the dinghy
and back to the boat before sunset
before dark because I don't have my
running lights yet and I know the bike
and the running lights I could just do
those first but it's just where I'm at
I'm just gonna go for it that's my goal

next time you're stuck in traffic and
you're pissed off just remember you
could always just go by foot then you
don't have to deal with traffic look how
awesome this is right in and out like a
demon's whisper
[Music]
[Music]
[Music]
yeah I'm gonna try to beat the Sun beat
the heat it's been over eight hours yeah
the roller is awesome obviously I'm sure
everybody was like why are you using a
brush the first time you saw me isn't it
yeah the roller is amazing way quicker
smoother it's the way together I'll use
a brush obviously for some tight areas
but
[Music]
[Music]
ready to go tape job on point should
just be able to splat it all over the
place now layer one layer one alright
just waiting for it to dry yeah this is
looking like a bigger job than I thought
it might be the cabin cabins gonna be
feeling a bit longer than I expected I
got Harry the H pond Harry the H pond
right here he's running for it that's
all I got this has been a crazy game
against South caucus dead even on points
but I got Harry the H pond I think he's
gonna do something here
here goes Harry oh he stopped Harry he's
not gonna let Harry go come on Harry
that's alright you're causing trouble
you're causing trouble hmm should I just
take material late
I mean Harry's got his valuable piece
tied up that'll do Harry you might not
land but Oh Harry
Oh Harry almost had it but he didn't die
in vain he didn't die in vain
oh and in the end it was Gary who became
the queen Gary good job Gary the Jeep on
because you know I'm about that tape job
about that tape job no gasps I'm all
about that tape job about that tape job
no gasps I'm all about that tape job
about that tape job no yeah
I'm all about that tape about that tape
tape tape hi I'm Brendan I don't know
what to go through my back alright looks
like she's ready so spray a little bit
of just bleach and water
[Music]
[Music]
it's definitely a hundred degrees in
there or hotter it's gotta be it's
roasting technically you're supposed to
apply this between 50 and 90 degrees but
it doesn't really say that's the only
time to apply it just says you know 90
degrees it's gonna dry faster and it
gives you the dry times from 90 degrees
to 80 70 60 50 so at 100 it just dries a
little bit faster it is drying faster
but I don't really see that as being a
problem because I'll get done faster
getting late
we're on layer 2 I'm gonna start and
then then I can roll it out you know to
make it I think it's gonna look smoother
so go around
start that wall that wall Hey look at
the cabin that wall that wall you're
going down
