[> [> M-40 Rudder -- Mike Anthony, - Sunday - 07/16/06 - 9:43am

After a great deal of research I am going to sand down the rudder, put on a good primer and 3 coats of a good bottom paint. Basically that is what I am going to do for the whole bottom. After looking into this, I think that often a barrier coat causes more problems and expense than it is worth. Could be wrong, however, Tivoli is over 30 years old, it was never done before and the bottom and rudder are in good shape. I am not going to start changing things now.
