lmfao
just saw the boatfistory
fucking typos
so we've gone over the boat pretty thoroughly.
the floor is soft and will be replaced after this season, and the interior/vinyl is cracked and generally rough, but thats a winter project, main concern is hitting the water
so far we've changed the gimbel bearing, gimbel seal, outdrive to transom gasket set, rear main seal, oil pan gasket, intake, outdrive oil, motor oil
Taking the boat out for its first water test tomorrow.
We were told by a local marina that this boat was wet docked for some amount of time.
The hull itself is in rough shape. Patches, keel cover etc.
But as long as it holds water well enough for the next 2 months, we can give it a proper repair in the winter.
Anything we should bring first time out?
We've been going over the coast guard list and have gotten
air horn, throwable floatation device, life jackets, flares, battery box
we'll have cell phones for ship to shore communication
also bringing a 55lb minn kota and battery for emergency, but the motor and outdrive seem to be pretty strong
we also added a pioneer cd player and sony 6.5's
not marine rated, but we needed something for tunes
suggestions? ideas?
