    Gas Tank Replacement on a MR220

    I took my 50 gallon aluminum tank to radiator shop. Mine wasn't used in years so it was nasty. They can boil it out, at least i think that's what they said. It came back spotless.

    I am about to cover my bow seating panels with vinyl. I was not going to use any foam underneath. I asked about this on an upholstery forum and most said to add 1/4” foam for the same reason you said. Now I’m really wondering if I should…..

    The compressor and tank and stuff would go under but I was thinking the horns on top of the gunwale next to the port windshield….

    Random question…..I was gifted this set of Hadley Air Horns years ago and they’re still in the box. Should I put them on the boat?

    Finally got the bow seating wood to fit good and the hatches and doors cut. Seemed to take forever, trim a little here, a little there….probably being way too fussy. I’m going to get some new brackets bent up for around the hatches as there are some cracks in the current ones. StarCraft was...

    I dug these panels out of the attic tonight. I cut these a long time ago. Going to need to do a little trimming and cut a couple hatch openings and finish coating them in epoxy. Then I’ll cover them in red vinyl. I’ve been playing with the sewing machine a bit just practicing on some scraps.

    I had a mobile car/boat detailer come out this morning and clean up the carpet. Six years of dust had it looking brownish. Turned out great.

    Thanks! Going to start picking away at things. I’m thinking about learning how to sew. I’ve been watching videos and stuff and I think I could do it. The hardest part I think, the back to back seats, are already done. I had someone do them years ago. Would it be worthwhile to move this...
