[QUOTE="meonline06, post: 454522, member: 8570"] I finished stripping the hull yesterday with the pressure washer. I had planned on doing some light sanding with a palm sander to finish prepping it for paint, but my buddy stopped by with a new to him Stratos bass boat and halted my progress. It has a 115 Evinrude that needs some work so that will be another project for me now. Anyway, tomorrow I plan on getting some primer on the boat. I also got the new to me 60 hp 'rude running yesterday. It sounds pretty good and the water pump is doing its job. I need to order some controls for it. I dont think I'm going to buy factory Evinrude controls because people want a ridiculous amount of money for them. I plan on buying a cheaper universal throttle control and I will mount the ignition switch on the console.
