Be careful with the wire brush,...

You don't want to leave any wire behind that might start corrosion,...

If the steering and throttle controls are sketchy then I would replace while they are easiest to get at,...

Moderately sketchy cables should be replaced. It'll never be easier then while the boat is torn down.

Look for Nyalox cup brushes. They'll be much kinder to the underlying aluminum hull and not risk stray wires that can corrode

Today's Efforts: My cousin is staying with us for a bit, so I had some company and some help. We were a little down and tired of destruction. Two days of sanding off 20-year old glue has its downside. So today we cleaned up the boat, and cut out all the floor boards and bow pieces. It was a nice move forward. Parts on order: seats, electrical connections, hatch handles, and some odds and ends. Working with the high commander to get her opinion of new vinyl for the panelling, console. The foam hasn't been poured in, it's been too cold here, and want to have a decent day for pouring it in.

Very cool. I really get interested in seeing the hulls after they are striped out. Get to see what's under there and how it was constructed.

I can post a few photos, the floor was merely cut and dropped in. The foam hasn't been poured in yet. It's been too cold, and getting the garage to a decent temp to work the expanding foam isn't in the cards just yet. I ran out of plywood, otherwise I'd ahve started cutting out a template for a rear casting deck, and fold down seats.

It's been a while to I will update accordingly: THe foam was poured in a hot day, baking in the sun. That is some wild stuff, a heat gun does very little good to heat your hull and other contact points. Use the sun and a hot day, and whammo, massive expansion. It's not easy, and not pretty, but it went in the hull and will provide some measure of safety. Many of the parts arrived, including the electrical, some of which was sent back for reasons I won't share. Vinyl on the deck was a DUCAN product typically used for decks on houses. Very heavy vinyl and backing, very easy to install and roll out the bubbles. Polished up the metal trays and spray painted high gloss for around the hatches. All new wiring front to back, built large raised casting deck on the back. Still constructing a folding bench seat. All new plumbing aerator, bilge and livewell pumps. All new switches, charging adapters for phones and other items, New Lowrance HDI-7 GPS/Chartplotter. Painted seat post mounts, new seats. After 6 weeks of waiting, drove 3.5 hours into Edmonton, AB to buy upholstery to finished Gunnels & Console, once final wire up is completed, will install final pieces of structure. Installed some LED lighting (just acessory lights nto strips) around the deck, installed swing ladder on casting deck, and some finer finished pieces to come. Photos to come behind this message.
