Ok, I finally got to work on the V this past weekend.
Problem is, now I have two weekends in a row
that I will not be able to work on her.
First repair,
bilge access covers.
The old owner just had plywood covering the holes.
I had some Home Depot trexlike material leftover
from a set of cellar doors I replaced.
I put them together then routed the edges round,
and painted them with the paint that grips to plastic.
 
No picture, but I did pull out the on engine trim switch.
had to pry it apart, cleaned the contacts and epoxied back together.
Works like a charm now.
Stayed tuned and as I repair items, I will post before and after picks.
