Good looking boat.

Do yourself a favor and get some boat stands so you don't kill yourself.

I was thinking the same thing - very scary seeing him under the boat with 2 x 4's and some rope rigging supporting the rear of the boat.

Not to mention the floor jack sitting on a 2 by in the mud.

Got more done over the last 3-4 weekends. Bottom is finished stripped and painted with clear. I think when I now rub out the sides it should match up to the clear bottom gloss or real close anyway. Gotta be a major improvement in speed and milage that old bottom paint was nasty. Also got the transom repair cap done and the engine back on. Getting close to hitting the ramp!! And check the decal for the sides. I uploaded a lot of pics to that google drive folder. Here's a few. Also more pics and details of the actual bottom paint removal and re-paint job here http://wellcraftv20.com/community/sh...210#post227210

Yes I know that did look bad. I had a total of 8 block sitting on 2x12 pads. It looked 1/2 *** but I wasn't in a hurry to get killed or worse I took my time that's usually the thing that gets people hurt. Boy that mud was a PITA though!!!

Have to disagree with skunk about the fuel filter, those filters will rust like nobody's business is you put it in the well, it's not rocket science to change one out without spilling. It is a pain to work on in those hatches, but I think it's the way to go.

My thinking is that once they begin to rust it's usually past time to change them anyway.

Good to know about the Seacast.

Finally got it in the water. very happy with that paint I put on the bottom I gained 3-5 mph getting just a hair under 50mph. But the real blessing will be less engine load so better fuel economy. Next project is rubbing it out and a nice big decal on the side.
