Post New boat paint
I just bought a new Garor Trax and noticed there is no paint or even primer on the bottom??? My dealer told me none of the mud boats come with paint on the bottom because it just rubs off?? Is this the case?

Never heard that, most I’ve seen have paint on the bottom. Could be that they we’re planning to do gator glide, and then you came and bought it.

When you ordered the boat, there should have been an option for bottom paint, slick coat, or unpainted on your build sheet.

A lot of guys put the gator glide on themselves. Especially a new hull. Save’s $2-$300 in labor.

Why would you even need paint on the bottom? My last 5 mud rigs didn’t have it and I can say I ever need it either tho.
