Nice shinny pretty things

they say, if it doesnt go, make it shinny.

going to mount the side exhaust tips, re-gel the bilge, then get the motor in to finish the exhaust.

re-gel the bilge

That is a lot of work for a bilge, why not use epoxy paint?

because I have the gel and the gun to shoot it.

Thanks. currently spending evenings sanding the exterior of the hull to spray new gel. pulled the transom shield off yesteday. used 3M4000 UV when I bedded in all the bolts. took me about 4 hours with a ratchet strap and wood shims to get it to come loose
