    Non Skid Painting???

    Yup, I got some foam rollers from lowes when I went to get their nonskid. Used one of the rollers to apply awlgrip 545, and yup, it literally exploded and spewed foam bits. But thankfully I'm putting non skid down later so I don't care at all!!!!!!

    Re-painting entire top surface of Armstrong bracket?

    I finished putting the primer on. 3 coats. Anyone think it's a terrible idea to leave it as is for the summer and top coat it next winter? I'm running out of time before the boat has to be back in the water and i have other projects to finish

    Gel coat cracks around drain plug

    Thanks, yeah for the inside I am not sure I will need to grind out the cracks and pealing gel coat, but there is so little room, I can barely get one arm in there....I have the snake attachment on my dremel

    Gel coat cracks around drain plug

    Did some work on the drain plug. I grinded out the cracks on the outside, they are okay, fiberglass is in very good shape. The inside is where we have more work to do. Annoying

    Re-painting entire top surface of Armstrong bracket?

    I read that a 50/50 mix of fine and course awlgrip is good. But I'm doing the rustoleum nonskid because its $10 at lowes and not $135. Plus its just the bracket, I don't really care too much.

    Re-painting entire top surface of Armstrong bracket?

    okay, I wasn't able to find a yard very easily that wanted to sandblast it and repaint. So how about this....what if I just to do a light sand to get any loose paint off and then roll on an epoxy primer?

    Simrad transom mount transducer location

    hmm, keep in mind, I just thought of something , I did not check to see if the trim tabs when positioned all the way down will block the sidescan. In the up position they clear, but not sure about down. Keep that in mind when you install yours. I do like syndgoose's installation which is...

    Simrad transom mount transducer location

    I just installed a 3-1! I already have a 1k shoot thru transducer, I just wanted side scan! I over drilled and epoxy filled the holes. Here's where I placed it. I had to try and avoid water pickup/thru hull and temperature sensor. I also tried to set it 1/4" below the transom. I see...

    Fuel in oil problem.

    these are simple questions and you've probably gone over these already, but have you checked the thermostat? If the engine is running cold all the time, it's possible some unburnt fuel is leaking past the rings. Also, if you are running rich, (is it carbed?), you can get excessive fuel in oil as...

    bonding system on Parker boats

    hmm, okay, so I guess creating a bonding system on a Parker is not a common theme. I keep my boat in the water 9 months of the year hooked up to shore power to keep the batteries topped off. Occasionally I will drain the house battery on an overnight and it needs charging before my next trip...

    Gel coat cracks around drain plug

    Looks like drain plug has been rotated a few times!!! What a mess. Really annoying. I just bought the boat 2 years ago and I'm just noticing this now. Clearly someone effed it up. The cracks come from the holes that are sealed up. Wish My surveyor would have noticed this. Anyway my fiberglass...

    bonding system on Parker boats

    Was having a discussion with my slip neighbor, a sailboat owner, and I was complaining about how there is superficial rust showing on my bow rail that I was polishing off and he asked if it was bonded. I didn't know the answer, and I don't think there is any bonding on any of the metals on a...
