Awhile back on the BB ,I saw a kayak hanging in a spray booth and I thought that was a great idea. So today I hung the GreatAuk from 2 little roller frames through the toggle holes to pulleys on the ceiling of the shop. Raised to about 6 ft. Did the hull, lowered it to 3 ft and did the deck. I used exterior gloss water based Varathane . With 2 people brushing we were done in about 30 min.
I have never used this Varathane for a boat before so I hope it works. No runs, no missed spots and I can recoat in 4 hrs. 5 or 6 coats in 2 days and I dont have to flip the boat over.I am a happy guy! By the way those little roller handles for the foam rollers fit right in the toggle holes and you can still get a brush around the hole.
Thanks to all the posters for ideas and inspiration
