hey guys,
I'm brand new to boating and my girlfriend and I just bought a used boat off of someone online so we could fix it up to use this summer.
We only paid 450$ for the boat and trailer and he said it was running last time it was in the water 2 years ago.
All i know is that its a late 60's or early 70's leaven bros marinerboat with a 40 hp johnson. I just wanted to know if there was a way to restore some of the shine because it pretty faded and i would prefer not to have to repaint it. I also just thought i see if anyone could give me some tips on what to look for to make sure this thing is water ready for this summer. I have basically 0 knowledge on boaats at this point, and im eager to learn. any ways, let me know what you think, and any help would be appreciated.
thank you
