We built the Pegazus 450 step by step ourselves - now we want to continue to maintain it. To do this, we use products that are available from Bauhaus Nautic. The BOOTE editorial team shows how the Bauhaus console boat can be embellished

First we clean the console boat with the Yachticon products offered by Bauhaus. Then the Pegazus 450 is given a coat of antifouling paint. Last but not least, we want to place a tent on the foredeck so that we can spend the night on board.

You can follow all the steps with the help of photo instructions.

Layer by layer: painting on antifouling

Fouling protection is an issue for every owner. For this reason, we want to coat our Pegazus 450 with antifouling. In the following article, we explain what the term means and what you should bear in mind when applying the coating:


Overnight stays on the Pegazus 450

With an optional tent set for the "Bauhaus craft boat", it is possible to convert the foredeck into a sleeping cabin. The construction requires, among other things, drill holes for tent pole mounts. Drills, screws and adhesive tape are therefore required. The tent is then attached to the boat after the poles have been put together. We will show you step by step how you should proceed with the assembly. In the last part of our Pimp-my-Boat special, you can find out whether the tent ultimately convinces us:
