Highlander's Hull Bare

Highlander is Robert Horton's ninth yacht renovation, and the experience really shows. Bob ensured Highlander got the very best treatment every part of the way. For instance, all exterior above-water paint is Awl Grip, which is the paint used for airplanes because it forms such a strong, glossy shell.

This photo shows Highlander completely stripped down, just prior to receiving her new paint.

Ideally, this page will later be updated with a complete set of photos, with some more descriptions of the lengthy process of making Highlander race ready. Stay tuned!
