Boat Painter Needed

[CaptV]

Hello,

I'm looking to get my 35' five islands hull and topside repainted this winter. Boat is located on cape cod. Can anyone recommend a painter in the area? Leaning toward ppg paints as the boat is a charter boat and does get some abuse from customers

Go see Joe at Atlantic service, Jamaica Bay queens, it was a 110nm trip each way for me and worth it

I hear the paint shop at Onset Bay Marina is top notch

I believe Onset Bay repaired Predatuna, they just quoted me $305ft with a haul included if I'm a little flexible with times

They may have done the repair but not the paint job. He was damaged in Plymouth harbor. I talked to him about what he was painted with and if happy with the paint. I wanted to use Alexseal for repair ability and durability but was told by an experienced painter on Nantucket that I should go with Awlcraft for forgiveness to inexperience with product and limited control of environment in the boat shed I’m doing the work in here. No thermostat to set and forget.

Is the quote for $305 per ft - for the hull sides and the transom only ? Just prep and paint / polish - taking care of any small imperfections?
Can I assume glass work on cracks in the old gel coat or crazing in the fiberglass - stress cracks in the old gel would be additional $?
And super structure -,house ,decks ,etc —anything above the gun wale- is not included in that $305 / per ft?
I have not had paint work done on a boat but will be doing that soon . I am curious as to the pricing
$300 seems to be the average price per ft give or take.... - I just am not sure what is included in that price...
Can you please clarify what is included and what is extra
Thank you

$305 ft is for std color Awlgrip w/boot stripe hull & transom waterline up to deck only, minor scratches and chips included. Any composite repairs or crazing and cracks in old gel coat would need to be inspected for price adjustment. Decks, side decks, cockpit and superstructure need to be quoted upon inspection. Give Bryan a call, great guy.

Thanks for the clarification. That seems like a great price - it’s a hell of a lot of work as far as prep alone and then all the way to polish.

Usually the case to your first paragraph only and anything additional is extra money. Simple filling with filler and sanding then primer and a round or two of glazing then topcoat for the $305 p/ft
