New boat

[pkrainert]

I need to get some better pictures but here is my "new" boat. Aquired from a freind who kept it covererd and under a carport. Its in pretty good condition.
I really want to paint this thing but I think its going to be a lot of sanding. It is all green... The seats are green, the floor is green most of the hull is green and even the steering wheel is green... I would like to paint the cap white and the inside white. I dont mind the green color on the outside. I just cant stand the all green interior lol. But I only paid 500 and it runs and drives great.

Re: New boat

before you start painting.....search core sample.....just to be sure

Re: New boat

I core sampled the transom and it was fine. I haven't done the floor though. I really don't think there is any rot. He was the original owner of the boat and took very good care of it. It could still have some rot but it is very solid.

Re: New boat

don't go pure white, it will blind you.

Re: New boat
