Just bought a 2004 Catalina 350. It's Winter in the North East. Excited for Spring. Luckily the boat is in great shape and have only identified a few issues to work on so this this first forum post is purely cosmetic.
Seems like the boot stripe is part of the gel coat and not painted on. I would like to change the color of the boot stripe to gray. It seems like my options are to paint over it or place a vinyl stripe over it? I would rather paint since stripping off a decal is tough. I know this because I have also been stripping of the vinyl stripes and prior name on the hull well above the waterline. I am going to re-stripe those in gray vinyl and place a new blue vinyl name and home port as well.
Any thoughts? Easy? Too much work? What paint to purchase? Thanks.
