Accomplishments

I have had over 20 years Experience in the Maine Coating Industry and every job is an Achievement and a Accomplishment every one job is not the same.


Dragonfly is an 80m Superyacht that was to Heavy for any Travel lift in QLD to take so we set up floating pontoons to erect scaffolding on to the Vessel and around onto the dock so we could build a capsulated tent for respray. After we went through the proper procedures of sanding and prepping the Vessel it was ready to spray, we then had a 13 man team that Consisted of 3 Painters STBD & Port on different level of scaffolding, 1 person to each Painter to hold a airline and a light and 1 person as paint preparer. Once everyone was in position and ready to go we Preceded to lay down 3 coats of Awl Grip 1000 Light Grey. The event took just over 8hrs at 2.5 hours a coat and a 15 min wait between coats (Has been in Boating Magazines).


Moksha is a 25m Sailing Yacht that i had worked on interstate in NSW for a year and 4 months, The project was a full refair, modifications and new paint respray, I had a team of 3-4 people with me all year round swapping people in and out every 4 months for those people who have families and cant be away to long and to the young staff that want that experience. The respray of this Vessel was done in SE Awlcraft, Metallic, Moksha Yellow it was a custom colour made by akzo nobel.


Batavia is a 60m Superyacht i have done work on Internationally and Locally, I was sent to Maylaisa with a painting team of about 15 staff members and about 20 of local Maylay labourers to do a full respray and modifications to this 60m Vessel. The project took roughly a year and a half. It was a great experience to work with people from different cultures & customs and was one of mr greatest Accomplishments.
