    Is there ANY type of rainX type of stuff for Isinglass?

    I've used Pledge 2x moisturizers on my isinglass, gauges and upholstery for years. My gauges are still shiny, original upholstery in nice shape and glass still flexible and clear. Jeff

    illegal discharge.

    how are 2 bilge pumps supposed to be wired?

    I bought one of these a couple of years ago! Bestway Hydro Force 110 Inch Caspian Pro It's holding up well and they make different sizes. I bought the 110 inch and they run right around $500 new. It will take a 10 hp engine as well. I can plane it with an old 4 hp Johnson 2 stroke...

    Reg number paint?

    I bought a stencil kit from Walmart and used a fat sharpie! It will last a year or so before fading in the Florida sun and is easy to touch up. Jeff
