Re: Stus-List Cabin sole refinish
Andrew wrote: Weren't there some here who really liked polyurethane for floorboards? Well, that might be me. I probably have the most abused cabin sole imaginable. I refinished it the first time in 2002, because I had it out for other reasons. I used Interlux 2 part polyurethane. It was great, and held up very well. http://www.wbryant.com/StellaBoat/Projects/cabinsole/cabsol.htm It was not slippery, as far as I could tell. At least, I never slipped. I actually tried to slip one night, and dumped some water on it and tried to skate from the galley to the V-berth. That's probably the only time I fell down. VBG I quickly redid it in 2009. It wasn't the fault of the finish, it was due to the fact that I'd spent the interim years refitting the boat, dropping dozens of wrenches on the sole and having the entire interior awash with fiberglass dust for weeks on a few occasions. Fiberglass dust will scuff the shine off any finish. Anyway... http://www.wbryant.com/StellaBoat/Projects/cabinsole/2009/index.htm So since 2009 I've been abusing it 24x7x365. It's still mostly shiny. I've p*ssed on it, f*'d on it, puked on it, slept on it, but still have never slipped on it. But, really, so what. There is no perfect finish. It's like boats, anchors, ground tackle, brightwork... There is no right answer, just the answer that works for you and meets your needs.

Re: Stus-List Too many boats disease -group confessional session;
I'd be @ 4 sailboats totaling 96 feet (Gulfstar 50, J/24, Laser, Opti) plus 2 powerboats totaling 24 feet (tender and tinboat). So 6 boats at 120 feet, plus a kayak.
