Hi guys,
I have a little Spacesailer 24 yacht here in WA and she was due for an antifoul job (first one that I'll be doing).
I blasted off a bit of the exterior surface of the hull above the water line (the white).
I was just wondering if someone could advise what I could re-surface this with?It looks like just 1 layer of whatever it is came too. Too much pressure with the pressure gun, my mistake.My research suggests that flowcoat would be the go, but thought there might be someone on here that would already be skilled in this stuff.
Photos attached. I'm just looking to repair the white area really. The blue I will just paint with antifoul paint.
Cheers!
Hard to tell from the photos how much has chipped off. If you did it with a water blaster then it needed to come off anyway. If its chipped deeper than the dirt, and its gel coat, then as you've guessed flowcoat is what you want to use. Looks like that could all do with a good sand up before you go much further though. Get rid of all that algae before you re-coat anything.
would also suggest posting your questions here:

the people on the sailing forum have plenty of expirience with this sort of thing.
