First thing is clean it. You can’t imagine the dirt, grease, and grime on everything from 3 months of mechanics climbing in and out the bilge.
Off friday, will have a busy day.

I feel the need to give a Kudos to Cutter Marina, who after we shade-tree mechanics spent 2.5 months fixing it found the problem in 4 hours.
Super professionals, from day 1 said “rest easy, we got this”.
I HIGHLY recommend them if you are in Middle River area and need good mechanics. Dont let anyone tell you in pandemic, in august, you cant get a mechanic. These guys were on it so fast.
Cant say enough good things about them.
PS. Forgot to say, they delivered my boat back to my slip at my marina when all done. That’s service.

+1 on the cleaning. We had the same... grease and handprints everywhere.

Spent 2 hours cleaning today. That was to get it just enough to go out and not be embarrassed. Needs another couple hours with a stiff brush hand scrubbing to get the black stuff out the no-skid.
Took it for ride to get gas for trip tomorrow. Felt good to be floating again, boat ran perfect, money well spent.
We are wore out from the cleaning. Wife wants to hire a detailer to do the rest. I may look into it.

Not sure if you use this stuff, but this with a stiff brush on a handle (shurhold) works great, I can do my 380 foredeck and swim platform in 30 mins…..
