Funny what these threads turn into....you make a suggestion on what you have seen and read about...some folks take a key word out of context and disregard or do not comprehend the dialogue.

I have been on Whalers my entire life - my current 1986 '18 Outrage is mostly full on OEM - with some nice upgrades...if I coated the locker, a new buyer would not even think twice.

I have had foam liner ,neoprene liner (old wetsuits),life jackets,Dri-Dek and on top of the rode in that locker..I carry a lot of chain and a stern anchor..why not just have it coated...its just a covered locker - If you USE your boat, the locker gets beat up...except when its full of beer,ice and fish.

As Silentpardner stated...it's very easy to have it done in TX. Spillar has done both of my 3/4 ton Silverados, and great trailer work - just 10min up the hwy.


What trouble? My new rubrail cost more and was more of a pain in the butt to install than if I were to coat the locker.

Line-X have been doing boats in Florida & California for awhile....I just heard about the marine applications recently,..thus the reply...they can match Whaler Tan.

ClevelandBill - Congrats on your Super Sport!

Do what's best for you..and get out and use your Whalers!
