I just bought an aluminum jon boat yesterday. The boat was in the water all year. There is a buildup of scale about 1/16th of an inch on the hull below the water line. Does anyone know how to remove this scale??? I just viewed on another post that muratic acid is too harsh for aluminum.
I just bought a boat with a 2001 25hp mercury tiller. I just noticed the skeg is bent form hitting a rock. It is not cracked , Just a small chip is missing. Is it possible to bend the skeg back to the original position. If how do you do it without breaking the skeg off.??
