Naden Update

Hello:

I haven't posted in a while bacause I had trouble getting back on after the change in the forum. Taking things off of boat is going O.K., undoing the wiring is slow as I have been making tags for each wire before I pull it. Should have the motor off soon if I get some time to build a stand.

This boat restoration stuff could take over your life if you let it!

Looking good. SHould be a great project.

Once you get the motor off...... flip it over and do the bottom. Graet time to tend to bad rivets and use gluvit on the inside.

Thanks, Bob VT!

I heard conflicting things about Gluvit on other posts. I guess it's better than nothing.

I plan to fill boat (to approximate waterline) with water and red or blue food coloring to look for rivets and seams that need attention, but I have to pull the old Mercury tilt pump out so I can get the aft flooring out as well.

Once that's done, I have to make a decision about foam -
