We just got the trailer back from Phil, the welder, and now it needs to be rewired and the new parts primed and painted.  Phil did a great job as usual, and he still is making the brackets to hold the support braces on the trailer.
We had a struggle with the two part paint we used on the boat.  The first coat did not go on well at all, and it was our fault.  We didn't put enough thinner in it to start with, and then we used a paint pad instead of a roller as the instructions recommended.  The paint pad fell apart half way through, it just didn't perform well.  So, we ended up sanding the first coat, a lot of extra work.  We followed the manufacturer's directions on the second coat, using a 1/4 nap wool roller cover and thinning the paint down more.  The paint went on much better this time, so we ordered another quart from the company and will finish the job with that.  Two part urathane is hard to work with, as we knew before we started, but we decided to use it because of its hardness and durability, especially when the boat is on the trailer.  So hopefully the third coat of paint will be a good one and we will be done with the bottom and be ready to turn the boat over.  The pictures included are of the extended trailer, the first coat of paint on the boat being sanded, and the second coat.
