Primer

Busy day in the boat department today.
UPS and Fedex brought me packages. UPS brought me the new Michigan Wheel Vortex XHS 13P prop. Its mounted on the motor now, just need a new lock nut next time I am at the hardware store and torque it down.
FedEx brought my paint order from Supermarine. Supermarine paint is on the Queen Mary and many US Navy ships and recently became available to the public. On the suggestion of the tech department at Supermarine I used the 664D one part primer. Its very simple to use and applies with a foam roller. They say its very easy to sand, I'll find out tomorrow.

I'm excited, this process goes lightning fast compared to the fiberglass process. Should have the color coats on by the end of the week.
