Well I'm semi retired and do handyman work so sorta there with you. Got to go rest a toilet today, make 100 bucks. Tomorrow assemble a couple shelves and a patio door screen for about the same. Covers booze always, sometimes boating. Priorities....
OK, kill my question on CCA.
Found coosa in Nashville just an hour away at 200 a sheet
MDO local 7 minutes away for 100 a sheet.

Well, I jumped the gun and hit the ramp this morning. Beautiful, 60 degrees and sunny, only four boats at the ramp. I love my lake.
Didn't have all the foam out I wanted but could resist. A beer an a tuna sandwich with ruffles.
So, it appears the leak is under bow floor. I was not...
