  1. Bar keeper's friend. It's a in a can. Buy it at walmart

    in the cleaning section. If that stuff does not clean it nothing

    will. WORKS GREAT!!! I second the magic easer works good.

  2. Yeah, It's funny when it's time to do the work nobodys

    around. But, the first really nice day and all your friends are

    waiting at the dock wanting to go out. :lol:

    Another thing... I think we have a class action law suit against

    all the boat manufactors. It seems they leave out all the WORK

    that goes into the boating thing. All you see is the the people crusing

    down the lake with the wind in their hair and smiles on their faces.

    They don't tell you it's going to cost you $560.00 to fill up the boat at $4.00

    a gallon and you are going to get mile a gallon.

    Oh, well. Some bottom paint to do and then hopefully we are going to splash

    her for the season. GOTA TO LOVE IT :lol:

  3. Pat, I was thinking about putting the wax on and

    leaving it on all winter and then buffing it off in the spring. What

    do you think??? I was thinking the dirt would not be

    as bad in the spring.

  4. I Hear you. Me and the girlfriend just finshed the hull

    on Sunday. We use 3m cleaner wax buff that stuff off

    wipe the boat down and then apply flagship wax on top of

    that. It's the only time we don't wish to have a bigger boat. :lol:

  5. Hey guys. I got merc 4.6's in my boat. I spun a

    impeller two seasons ago. I had the impeller and

    the water pump replaced on the port engine. I ran

    the boat no more than 20 hours and the same thing

    happens. Smoked another impeller on the same engine.

    Now. The question is... Are marine water pumps the same as one

    you put on a truck.The marine water pump is $170.00 and the "auto

    water pump" is $40.00 They look the same when you put them

    side by side and all the holes match up. To replace the impeller

    you have to pull the boat out of the water and drop the lower unit

    and with it being a

    30 footer it gets expensive to keep pulling it out.

    Thanks guys for your help.

  6. You may also want to check out most carpet

    places for outdoor carpeting. Thats where I got mine.

    You can find almost any color and no, I 'm not talking

    about the " Fake green grass stuff". :)

  7. FISHINMAN,Ask how it will breathe. With the vinal backing will

    the moisture be albe to get out of the boat when the boat is

    buttoned up. Just something to think about. Hate to come down

    and the inside is "WET" and mold may start to grow.

  8. He is in Glen harbor Marina. I think he rents a

    space there. Like I said well worth it. You may

    want to call him early because he gets busy. But

    the turn around is very quick.

    If your down this way around late April I'll have

    my boat in the water down in the Montour Marina

    You can stop down and check out the work. I'll show

    you some little tricks Keith did for when you get caught

    out in the rain where you can see without getting totally

    soaked. :lol:

  9. If you are talking about Keith in Watkins Glen. He

    is worth every penny. I have a 30 footer and he

    made a camper back with zip out curtins with zip

    in screens. Matching hatch covers and the whole

    9 yards.
