I was just going to prep. and paint it myself but if you know of someone who does decent wraps for cheap I am all ears.

I don't plan on fixing it up until this season is over so I have plenty of time to talk to someone about ideas and prices.
I'll ask around, but I'm guessing it'll be close to that $1500 mark, maybe a little cheaper depending on the wrap.

Have you looked into the cost of having it professionally painted? I don't know for sure, I'm just guessing, but I'd say that having it professionally painted will be all of $1500. Paint and bodywork is crazy expensive these days. A lot of the cost is in the prep, but the prep is what determines the quality of the job in large part. The best painter can't cover up bad prep work.

It's super cool to see everyone's configuration of boat from kayak to salmon fisher.
When I first saw this thread what I thought members had and what members ACTUALLY have is quite a bit broader spectrum.
I honestly would not have expected to see anything bigger than a 24 footer and nothing that was ocean worthy...
