Hey guys, i've been working on rebuilding a 77 bayliner mutiny and have finally gotten around to getting the motor back on.
i still have a few more electrical lines to hook up, but i would like to try starting it this weekend.
i'm going to have a buddy of mine help me who knows more about boat...
Seems like every other post lately has been about boat paint, i suppose as it gets warmer we're all looking to paint.
Unfortunately for me i hadn't seen any posts regarding the preparation needed to paint a boat deck.....
I just finished glassing in my new deck, i used polyester resin to do it...
I know from reading old posts that you guys have gone around and around about epoxy vs poly. And as a new boat builder i had been under the impression that epoxy was the way to go, so i have been using it for my entire project so far, stringers and transom.
I've got my deck in and i have already...
i'm prepping to install my new deck after replacing the stringers and transom,
after much searching of the threads i plan on doing the following
1/2in pt plywood - dried for at least a month or until dry
2 coats of epoxy on underside
countersink ss screws through deck to stringers coated with...
i've been working on this 1977 bayliner mutiny, and now i've come to the point where i need to find out if i should add any extra matt to this hull damage.
it looks like it must have hit something and it was repaired from below the boat with pretty decent patch which allows no leaks (already...

Sorry the pics are kinds big, didn't have time to resize them.
This is some kind of hard plastic compound applied to a section of my hull floor, i found it after chipping...
Got this boat from a dealer in florida, didn't pay too much for it, but i definitely should have inspected it more before i bought it (didn't know that much about boats then), now i guess i'm gonna learn about boating from the ground up.
there's so much water in the foam, i'm wondering if this...
Hey everyone, i'm new to the forums but have been using iboats for a long time, actually bought this boat off of a listing here.
So what i have is a 1977 bayliner mutiny runabout with an 89 johnson 90hp outboard on it. I got this boat dirt cheap and i'm looking to get a few good years out of it...
