[Alberg30] A 30 eng

[sousa, stephen (ENG)]

Richard,

I used Interportect 2000 on one boat and Awlgrip Barrier Coat on the Alberg.
The Awlgrip is easier to work. Application instructions by Awlgrip is apply
3 coats with a roller 
12 mils thick and before it cures apply at least one coat of bottom paint.
The paint bonds to the coating and increases the life of ablative bottom
paint. 

If you are not in a hurry, the boat will be coming out for winter storage in
a few weeks at which time an update can be provided on the bonding
properties. This is the first year with the coating and Awlgrip paint.

As an Alberg 30 owner of less than one year I will start with only 2
Questions. Is anyone running in salt without a heat exchanger and what kind
of life could I expect from the engine before rust takes over.

Anyone know the advantages of VC tar over interprotect 2000. Seems like VC
tar is easier to work with.

Maybe that's 3 Questions.  Thanks.

Have picked up some good tips just reading other Questions and answers.
