[QUOTE="SCR4TCH, post: 503558, member: 34425"] I went and picked up a few parts today and started on some basics. Since its supposed to be such a great weekend, i figured it would be the perfect time to get the boat in the driveway to do some work and let it sit uncovered so it can air out a bit. I took out the gas tank/line and emptied it all out, bought some lower unit oil that i'll throw in when i'm closer to ready, and removed the old on board battery chargers along with their wiring. I also got the batteries out to test, though i'm pretty sure they're shot. I decided i wanted to try and clean up the hull before winter hits (regardless of if i get it running), man that river scum is hard to get off! Anyone have any tips? I bough some Purple Power aluminum brightener which worked great on portions of the boat that were under the cover regularly, but it didn't touch the sides/bottom of the hull. Even my pressure washer barely made a dent. [/QUOTE]
