Hi,

I bought 2 years ago a 1989 nacra 5.8.

I had a few cracks here and there in the original gelcoat, decided to "re-gelcoat" the entire boat. I wasn't too happy with the finish, did two layers of "brightside" white paint to get nice shinny look, I ordered custom vinyl decals to give it some character and here is the final result, I'm pretty happy with the way it turned out, I just wanted to share 😎 :

Great job... Hopefully you'll consider coming down to Texas for a Nacra get together (Nacra 50th year North Americans) we are planning in 2024 celebrating 50 years of Nacra.
