Got the gray epoxy done today tomorrow we start the color

Th marine I got the black plastic. The flair pushed the rubber open on the scupper also. when I changed them they didnt stick to the 5200 very good either. They weren’t very expensive so it was more labor than anything else.

Got mine at the bottom paint store. Bottom is prepped and ready to start rolling it on in the morning.

I put the plastic ones in my 330 and didn’t like the fit or look. I wound up pulling them out and putting brass in.

It works great. The boat is sitting inside a metal building and I recieve as many channels as I do in the house. It wasn’t to hard to install. Boat already had a gps antenna I removed. Starboard side over electronics box I removed the rigging pipe as I had a lot of new wires to pull up to the...

Custom boat works on Facebook. They have done one already and had the template. They came recommended and have been very professional.

Progress on the bottom paint prep. I should have just wrote a check what a job. Brother works for a marina he is bringing by some boat stands this afternoon so I can get it up off the trailer.

Here’s a preview of the panel it will be black plexi back lit in blue

It seems that switch that raises and lowers the box it’s difficult at times. Try a little lube and a little more pressure. oh and congrats your gonna love it.

I am deep into sanding the bottom getting it ready for paint. I’m waiting on a couple of wire harnesses so I can pick up my new motors. I’m going to have to remove all the Yamaha stuff and rerig for mercury. Not real happy about that as I purchase quite a bit if new stuff for Yamaha. If any of...

Well I had a boat builder reach out to me . They had a pair of the Mercury 300 four strokes in stock they were willing to sell me. They are dts and they are selling me the rigging also. Hopefully picking them up end of this week or first of next. I’m really excited to get these motors. The V-8...

I’m not sure you can buy a new gas marine generator anymore. You may look at nextgen. That’s what I’m installing when my kohler dies. It’s in my 2003 express had 7 hours on it when I bought the boat. I cleaned the carb changed oil and plugs new thermostat and impeller. I’ve put 3 hours on it so...

The original Marlins hull did not carry all the way back. It had a step up at the rear. Mayb that’s why .

I just replaced the floor drains nothing wrong with the hoses or the clamps and the thruhulls are metal

I’ll look on my phone but I’m not real good with taking pictures

Man I owned a auto paint and body shop for 38 years. It’s hard for me to pay someone to do that but I just don’t have the shoulders for the buffer anymore. It is amazing what sanding and buffing will do to a GW. The key is sealing it up with wax once your through. The gel coat is porous and...

Nope crawled down in the bilge and got to it. I’m not a fan of cutting holes if I don’t have to. rather than fight to get the old floor drains out I just snapped them off . I used a heat gun to warm up the pieces and the broke fitting came right out . I installed the new floor drains I had...

Yes because my dealer changed the date numerous times. Glad I’m not a Yamaha dealer. The Mercury 300’s were quoted same money as Yamaha. Problem is the 5 grand in rigging and props I have to buy. Already spent a couple of grand updating all my Yamaha rigging. Oh well it’s only money. Hopefully I...
