Hi Mark!

Although my bulwarks are Douglas Fir, I've had good luck from bare wood using the following: sand to 180 or so, interlux wood sealer, interlux primer, then this past year, I used Easypoxy for the topcoat. Even the places that I didn't quite get around to topcoat are still in good shape after a year. In other words, I'll have some bulwark painting of my own to finish this summer!

Hope your project turns out great!

your CG 31' brother,

Scott S/V "Tally Ho!"
