Here is a gelcoat hack using linseed oil. This is about as easy as I could imagine for a hack. I don't see any downside. About $15 per quart so...
So today I learned Oscarvan has a 42 year old boat and Capt J is the same age. Classics both. Congratulations on the pulling the trigger on a...
Good for you. Start looking at previously owned boats.

Good on ya' MYL. Follow up much appreciated. Shout out to @Capt J @MBevins and @Capt Ralph as well. @mapism nice added experience and thoughts.
Summary from Judy & Pascal makes a lot of sense. Save on the short haul/survey if the seatrial does not go as desired. How do you run the...
The fuel shut off stop solenoid should be near the fuel lines before the injectors, I will have to look on my Cummins qsb 5.9 but I think the plug...

I missed the L.O.A. range. The three sleeping rooms combined with High 20's cruise will put you closer to Sport Fish I think. Does a Searay 58...
Fantastic concise and specific report for the topic at hand. I believe that the independent contractor in the marine industry is doable....
Taco Bell hot sauce works too.
As long as you can open for the strainer and open and close the seacock handle you look good to me.
Gotcha. Then do it:) I really don't know what type of work you are anticipating or envisioning. TN doesn't strike me as a place where yachts need...
I am trying to figure out if you want to have a boat with your wife and sail in the Med or work on a boat. Work on one if that is what you want to...
I suppose the organizers and the outfit they are or have hired to maintain a show that is working with the SARS CV2 viral threat. From the FLIBS...
It appears that as of June 25, 2020 FLIBS is thinking that working and living with the current viral threat is the way to go:...
I have yet to seen Grady White enter the discussion. Less fishing and more suited to your brief. I have no experience other than a low 20 footer,...
So very nice of you to share your experience. Would a sea trial and survey have caught all of these?
