Ken and others,

This raises a question. I've been working on Cigano either in the yard or 
behind my house for several years now and despite all the renovations it 
looks a great deal the same from the outside as it did when I started. I've 
saved the cosmetics for last.

I would like to repaint her but I can't afford a professional paint job. I'd 
be happy with the 5' job. Or 10. Or even 25. Maybe. I've read about roll and 
tip and heard of several different paint systems one of which can be rolled 
and doesn't require tipping.

Now. Is there a technique/system such that I can do the job incrementally? 
That is to say, got a good 4 day window, let's do the flybridge. Or, water's 
warm, the mosquitoes and noseeums and wind are down, let's do the boot 
stripe.

Any ideas?

You can see I'm hopeful that I'll be headed where noseeums and tropic 
breezes will represent a problem.
