i'm gonna be honest here... i'm gonna keep this boat one, maybe two seasons. although i may change my mind and keep it for ten years.... it's in beutiful shape. the current plan is to use the crap out of it for 2 years and sell it before the move down south and find my dreamboat when i arrive in the promised land. the paint on there now is in decent shape. no growth and it appears to be a couple layers thick. the marina is not located in stagnant water so i don't expect too much growth.
worst case, i'll blast and reseal the bottom if i decide to keep it. for now, i'm gonna drop and go.
my real issue is zincs. i don't see anything aside from the trim tab zinc. on my I/Os, there were zincs everywhere. the trim tabs are bennett smart tabs, so there's no electric hookup. just a spring loaded self adjusting tab. as i mentioned, i don't know if the entire lower unit comes out when tilted up. even if i change the trim tab zinc, i don't think it will be in the water. i see zero prior growth from the boat being moored. what do you guys think about new zincs?
