[Alberg30] Painting the interior

Hi Friends,

When you paint the interior of your vintage Albergs, what do you
recommend?  The previous owners of our WATERMARK, a 25'LOD Rhodes
Meridian, painted the interior with a waterbase zinser.  It looks good
but we spent two days scrubbing out mold and mildew.  This could have
been because since the former owners we spoke with, two other owners
performed absolutely no maintenance and let her sit at a Florida dock
for almost two years before I bought her and returned her to the
Midwest.

Some people have remarked that oil base might leave toxic fumes and
cause problems while others mentioned that waterbase is better for the
environment and health.  It would seem to me that perhaps waterbase
paint might be more likely to be conducive to mold and mildew growth.
Oil base might clean better.

What do you all think?  (and of course, do: )

Scott Wallace, WATERMARK
