So the after a couple days of muriatic acid and pressure washing she’s finally clean!
Thursday the guys are going to start sanding and then it’s getting 2000e primer and the Pettit Black Widow bottom paint. The stuff isn’t cheap but it’s designed for racing boats to be very slick and apparently it’s polish able to get a gloss finish. We’ll see how that goes.
Also going to be priming and painting the outdrives.
Once that’s done, the original props will go back on and should be good to go.
This adventure has made me consider getting a trailer for the boat. I have a boat ramp into the canal on my property on the side yard. I may start storing it out of water, as inconvenient as that is compared to walking out back, untying ropes and going.

Storing it out of the water is the way to go, make sure all the mechanics work on the drives and tabs steering before dunking it.
