There were a lot of damaged spots on the deck and it really took some time to look it all over and repair all of the areas. After the deck repair experience from my last boat I've develop a hatred for gel coat. Fixing crazing is a waste of life units and no man should have to do this...pain in the A@#, but alas, it must be done.
After earasing the years of damage to the deck it was fit for painting.
Two coats of white topside paint, then some nonskid.
For the nonskid I used Kiwi Grip. I have experimented in the past with several other products. So far Kiwi Grip is the best thing that I have found. It is on the pricey side, but better that than slipping and busting yourself up or falling off of your little 16' boat in this case.
And while the waiting for the paint to dry - bright work!
When the paint was dry, it was time to start installing the deck hardware.
