: Yes, air supplied respirator but just a tyvek suit. With high

: The boat is a Van de Stadt "Samoa" - 48', aluminum
: (topsides are unpainted like a workboat), enormous fractional
: rig so it goes pretty good in spite of the heavy fitout. Three
: good years of my life in doing this one :)

I've suffered from excess exposure to acetone, I'm now very very careful using it.

The big boat is lovely :)
