[QUOTE="fish2keel, post: 348020, member: 4062"] Today was a huge day. I took the wood and all steel out of the boat. Between the steel and the pressure treated wood, the bow is pretty shot. Its been cut up and has so many problems Ive decided to try to put a new front of the boat. I also started taking out the aluminum structure on the floor. The waterlogged foam was pretty heavy. Probably took out 100 pounds of foam I would think. I have stripped all wiring out of the boat as well including the trailer. I did find put out the motor needs a starter. Tomorrow list is as followed.... 1. remove all other aluminum flooring and waterlogged foam 2. clean all of the leaves and stuff out 3. Remove battery out of hatch 4. Remove foam out of rear bench to be replaced 5. Order starter for motor This week I will also be stripping all the paint off the boat, both inside and out. I am still trying to decide on paint. I was thinking of doing duck hunter tan on the outside but I may leave it polish aluminum like the jet guys do. Opinions? [/QUOTE]
