Condolences. It is a situation there is nothing that i can say to make it better. Just know i feel for you.

But on the bright side boat looks good.

Plan is for this coming week I hope. Going to wash and wax the bottom first. Also picking up a portable car shelter thingy so then it will be flip time so I can keep the hull in the driveway and have my garage to use for the interior and engine clean/dress up over the winter.

Just gotta find like 10 guys to help flip it without damaging anything

Thanks Everyone for the kind words.. It's been a struggle but we are getting through it together as a family.

Well yesterday was a looooooong day. Got the hull washed and waxed. Took about 8 hours to get it all done. All by hand I am sore today.

After Wash





Then waxing started.



And got to this in the end









Very happy with how it turned out. Nice deep and shiny Just waiting for the storage shed to show up then I can flip it back on the trailer and put it under cover for the fall winter. Plan to have it close by to the garage so I can climb in when needed.

Thanks again all for your help and support
