The basic hull is finished. The rest of the crew (I don't paint) brushed on a coat of some aluminum rich urethane for an undercoat then a rubberized top coat. Was slow drying in the shed so we pulled it out yesterday. Used log rollers under it and the tractor to hold up the front as we pulled. Worked quite well. Going to let the rubber cure for a few days then flip it over to start the machinery install.

By the volumes of wood it should weigh about 4000 pounds right now.

Free advice is worth exactly what you payed for it.
