[QUOTE="Centrarchidae, post: 348120, member: 12622"] Making a little more progress today. Removed all the aluminum shavings and rivet nails and took the boat to the local quarter car wash to get it cleaned up. Cleaned out about 200+ rivet nails, a pile of shavings and a bunch of other debris. Planning to put some self-etching primer on it on Saturday - supposed to be 60°F or more. It was almost that tonight! Took off the caps on the stern and the bow of the boat as well as the oar locks and lifting handles on the stern. Sanded a bit of the inside prior to the washing and I think I am ready to put some primer on it. Remaining major steps as I see it are: 1. Prime inside 2. Run electrical and fuel lines 3. coat all the wood components with spar urethane 4. Figure out how to make the cooler in the stern port-side box - planning on a rubermaid container with Styrofoam insulation around it. 5. Cut the hatches on the storage box and the cooler box. 6. Install the foam and then all the wood. Probably aught to paint the inside as well. 7. Finish assembly [/QUOTE]
