    Interior stains - what are they and how to clean?

    I've had my 2003 Glastron sx175 for 2 years now and these stains just started showing up on the white interior. I thought it was just from grease and work being done under the hatch but I also have stains on the front seats. The coloring and patterns are different so maybe from something...

    What is this repair going to take - hull damage

    I don't trust myself to do the repairs if this more than cosmetic. Do you have guesstimate range of how much it could cost? Sorry these videos are a little shaky, let me know if that's what you're asking for.

    What is this repair going to take - hull damage

    I have an appt at boat repair shop on 12/11 so I wanted to get an idea of how big of a hole I dug myself. When you ask to look inside the hull... it is right below the engine so I can try and see if I can visual the floor under the engine (on top of the water leak). Is that what you're asking...

    What is this repair going to take - hull damage

    I made a rookie mistake and I'm really beating myself up about it. I have couple spots on the bottom of the hull that got some chunks taken out of the fiberglass. The biggest one is about half the size of my palm. The others are about smaller than the size of a quarter. A couple of streaks where...

    Gas/oil sheen run-off from motor

    I think I found the source (or one of the sources) of the sheen. I noticed the hydraulic fluid reservoir for the motor tilt was very low and I just had it serviced and full a couple months ago. Could that be the source? What could be leaking? Any tips to locate?

    Gas/oil sheen run-off from motor

    I went to go investigate. Confirmed a little sheen while engine is running, turned it off and still noticed sheen. I then noticed water dripping under the bottom belt, even after I turned the water off. Could this be part of the problem? Or unrelated/separate problem? (videos attached).

    Gas/oil sheen run-off from motor

    I just went out to the driveway to test it again. Placed ear muffs and ran water, this time no sheen. I haven't used the boat in months (partly in fear that using it will cause a larger issue). So after use I see it when it's not running. But if it sits for a prolonged period of time, no sheen...

    Gas/oil sheen run-off from motor

    I have a 2003 Glastron 175sx with a Volvo Penta inboard motor. I have noticed a sheen of oil/gas runoff when I am flushing the motor with ear muffs and fresh water, even when the engine is off & being flushed. I notice the same amount of runoff when I am flushing with ear muffs and the engine...
