    Even after watching this whole series a couple of times you can't understand how you make things look so easy to do and repair when in reality it is so tough specially when you don't have all the tools on hand, it clearly shows your craftsmanship. On the other side the fact that this guide of how to do it is one click away definitely makes me more confident to take over those scary projects, thanks so much "A" for taking your time to share your job and thinking process with us, priceless.

But I don't give up I am patient , I don't rush the work. Having a cooler of ice cold water and yes an occasional beer makes the work smoother😊😊

    Regarding the Bimini, the factory Bimini is supposed to be kind of “backwards” on these.
    The factory Bimini from Boston whaler has strap tie downs in the forward and the rear. The forward straps go to the center console and the rear straps go to the mounts you saw near the rear seats.
    It stows with the Bimini angled forward and above the center console.

    Hey give
    Meguiar's M0116 Medium-Cut Professional Cleaner Compound a try. I have used it on boats, cargo trailers, aluminum, and trucks. All with VERY GOOD results.
    It will make that motor shine. And probably remove the old green mess on the bottom. Not sure on that you may have to get a heavy cut compound to get that green off.

  • @indrekkpringi

    On the stained interior: have you tried ordinary 100% BLEACH?? It works wonders.
    For it to really work it needs to have a product date of less than 3 months old and the industrial strength.
    You have to order it special from a supplier that sells it. The PH is slightly higher than ordinary bleach.
    When left on the shelf for longer than 3 months the PH of the bleach goes down.
    I sprayed the roof of my woodshed that was green with mold and the roof came out in a few weeks like it was brand new.
    I didn't even rinse it down; I just let the rain do it. By sitting there for some time it killed everything and dissolved it.

    I wonder if white shoe polish would work to “stain” the vinyl? Easy enough to test.
    Years ago one of my friends was buying up old Mopars that had been neglected for years, the man was a magician.
    He would take a car and do to it what you’re doing and the car would be spectacular. Most people are either to lazy or intimidated to revive old vehicles.

    • @BornAgainBoating
      @BornAgainBoating  Місяць тому

      It's a hard process and not a great one, that's for sure. You gotta file a police report for an abandoned boat, then they do an investigation that you have to pay for, and then if they can't find the owner then you go through the process of getting it retitled to you, but you would be liable for expenses and what not, it's not a good deal, I actually stay away from non-titled boats, unless you can find the owner of the title, it's a lot of work :/

      It was basically a repo where the owner didn't pay their bill for so long that they went through the process of taking the boat for payment of the bill. Once a bill gets high enough it's actually pretty easy, I think you do most of it through the Sheriffs office and the DMV but also have to put it in the paper, but after that the DMV gives you the title to the boat!
