I have had success using oxiclean. Just mix up a heavy mixture. 1/2 cup to 1/2 gallon water. A bit of elbow grease and the seats look great.

Sounds just like my 93 Force 70hp on muffs. Agree with racerone. Do the final carb adjustments on the water.

Looks like you’ve done some great work! For night fishing I assume you will also be adding navigation lights and an anchor light.

Looks like you’re gonna need a new fuel tank. The one you have in the pic is way too far gone.

looks like you’ve got a total restoration going. “getting it done fairly quickly“ is a stretch. We all thought that 🤣. Mikes list of needed items is spot on. Don’t skimp on the PPE. With regard to what to use. I used epoxy. A bit more expensive but your work time is more than poly resin. If...

Watch vids…. There’s a ton out there. I only used 800 grit wet sand paper and got rid of the oxidation. Then buffed and then did a coat of wax. Good luck

Just stumbled on to your thread. Looks great. Make sure you’re in spec with your transom thickness.

Thank you and happy holidays to all

Great job! Looks awesome.

Yep I did as well. In the mail yesterday. I’ll await the hard copy.

Wouldn’t a layer of resin do just as good ? Adding a layer of glass seems like over kill. Just sealing the wood should be sufficient.

76 vw rabbit. Had the service records on it from day one. Little old lady was religious on having it serviced paid 500.00 with 250k miles on it. put another 100k on it. Replaced points and rotor and a half shaft. The clutch finally went on it. Traded it for a Pontiac fiero. Remember those?

What’s the plan for the hull? Painting ? Cleaning?
