Interior Paint

Finally.  A day with low humidity and no threat of rain.  I put on the interior paint today.  Light Grey, High Gloss from Kirbys.  They make a great paint that is a joy to work with.  I usually put a splash of Penetrol in the paint bucket to help it flow better on warm days.  I also sanded the exterior smooth to prep it for its final coat of Navy Blue.  Hope to do it tomorrow.

On the motor front, the 9.9 with the mice has been donated to the mechanic who declared it dead in exchange for labor.  Found a newer 9.9 Evinrude (2001 model) that runs like a top.  It actually has a little more power than the older one.  I learned that Johnson and Evinrudes are rated at 7% more than their listed horsepower, while other motors deliver up to 7% less than their listed HP.  The government allows a 7% +/- allowance on HP ratings.  Interesting and explains why the old Diablo didnt get on plane with the Honda. 

Trailer is on its way.
