    Hi Flite will try to be there. We are planning to cruise up through the Chesapeake when we get back to the states. Currently sitting in Antigua.

    We used the KiwiGrip and are very happy with it.  We live aboard and the decks take a beating.  Very easy to touch up. 
     I used a microfiber roller to apply a very thin first coat.     I applied a heavier coat in my high traffic area and it wasn’t necessary.

    I have several email accounts and only use this address for the group mail. I have never received anything other then group messages. It is completely spam free. Had the information been shared I would know something had happened.

    When I was at the Annapolis boat show buying some parts from Garhauer he asked what boat I had. When I said Pearson424 he thought for a moment and then said “I believe we made the chain plates for them”. May want to check with them.

    I installed an 8 inch waterproof access plate in the anchor locker. When retrieving the chain I just reach in and knock down the castle. I have even been known to stick my foot in to give it a push. Just took a lot of nerve to cut that big of a hole in the boat but very happy with the results. Just make sure it is closed all the rest of the time.

    I used the kiwigrip and have been very happy with it.  It is very easy to touch up if needed. As a liveaboard, cruising to the Bahamas and east coast, the deck takes a beating but it holds up very well.   The only thing I would have done differently would be to use a less aggressive roller then what they recommend.

    On Hi Flite, after we lifted it out of the bilge (2 person job) we dropped the main halyard through the forward companionway and used that to lift it out of the boat with one person guiding it to avoid hitting anything then lowered it to the finger pier.

    Just had ours replaced yesterday in Nassau. The mechanic had several short open end wrenches to get at those bolts.
