Our next tech meeting will be on Wednesday 3rd June, as usual in the Heritage Room at South of Perth Yacht Club, 7.30pm for an 8pm start.
Our presenter is Gary Martin, owner and manager of Boat Paints in South Fremantle. Gary opened Boat Paints in 1991 in Fremantle to cater for the growing demand for technical advice in Marine Paints from Commercial and Pleasure boat owners. Boat Paints supplies a comprehensive range of paints and painting materials as well as fibreglass materials for boat repair and finishing. Gary originally trained as an Automotive Refinisher and has over 33 years of continuous experience in painting. With these skills he was heavily involved in the Americas Cup in Fremantle and then the later Whitbread/Volvo ocean racing boats. In his talk, Gary will be giving us a broad introduction to marine paint and antifoul systems for various substrates followed by time for any related questions.
