Paint It White

This week I put on the base coat of white exterior latex paint. I read somewhere that exterior latex paint was as good as (or better than) oil-based paint for boats, so I thought I'd give it a shot. Once it dries it becomes as waterproof as the oil based paint, and will actually last longer because it won't dry out and crack like oil paint will.

This is Memorial Day weekend, so I might actually shoot for a maiden voyage...

Stay tuned.

P.S. This is the color-scheme we're thinking of painting our boat.
