Pardon me for asking a dumb question but does anyone have a fair idea how about how many sq. ft. a 1964 Nauset interior is? The folks at Durabek are quoting coverage per gallon at about 90 sq ft. Thanks!

measure length x width write down number.

measure length x widtch of freeboard write down number


add these 2 together and that is roughly you're sq. footage.....add some for error/wast.

Durabeks website only says 60 sq. ft per gallon.

Add the length*freeboard number twice. Boat has two sides.
And add width*freeboard to include the transom.

And "freeboard" should be "height of gunwale above deck",
which isn't quite the same.
