Out she comes

ours goes in for the new motor end of the month.
 
Alrighty the work begins tomorrow!! Just made it to the boat lift with the weather. Can't wait to ditch the ancient 1993 graphics. Crap you could sell those pounds and pounds of mussels on those legs to a French chef!

That's what mine looked like after it sat for 3months except it was covered with jelly eggs(best I can describe them)

Holy crap...is that normal for you? I'd be so scared up where I am if my Bravos came out like that every year..Can't wait to get my V-Drives this year. Looks like a lot of scrubbing..

What do you guys recommend for getting rid of the little "rings" left over from the barnacles on the outdrives after you power wash?
 
Take them off the drives and soak them overnight in Barnacle Buster. They will look like new. I have bravo IIIs with solid hubs so if you have rubber hubs make sure that it is ok to soak them in the Barnacle Buster.
 
I'm up in Canada too, legs come out with that much growth if I leave the boat for a full year. I try to do a haul out 2x a year to minimize the work. Otherwise its a lot of scraping.
What paint do you use on the outdrives? Ive been using trilux 3 but it dosent last much longer than 6 months.
 
Great job! Looks like a different boat. You should be proud.
