Re: victory at sea
No what I said was Re-deck. Lol. Just finished.<br />6 gallons + of epoxy and high density filler, 50 yards of biaxal tape, 2 sheets of 1/2 inch marine grade ply, 40 sq feet of 7oz cloth, new stringers, reenforced deck timbers, and some added hull bracing above decks to make her stiffer and avoid the 'taco' effect as I bounce over the lake. The interior is epoxy barrier coat hull paint by Interlux. I ran a textured roller over the deck before it dried and got a nice, not too aggressive non skid surface that is tough as nails and relatively cool on the feet.<br />The 85 V4 is back to life after sitting in the sun for five years. New carb kits, impellar, stats, fuel lines, and a VRO bypass. It ran really great.<br />This motor has been very reliable and never has failed to get us out an back. The gelcoat is in need of a restore job, but that is another story.<br />We're just gonna run the heck out of it this summer I've been working on it since last August and am ready for some payback.<br />After mountains of rotted wood, foam dust and crums, fiberglass dust, and goop getting all over me, it is sure is fun to get out on the lake.<br />H90
