What's You're Winter / Spring Upgrades?

Wow what a difference. I see your props have the Pettit barnacle paint on them have you had success in the past with it? I did mine this year and was wondering. The camper back makes her look soooo different. Well done.

Everyone, including the prior owner (my boss), says it looks like a different boat.

I did not see the boat when it was hauled but the marina owner said the bottom was good no big stuff on it and the props and shafts were clear. He did say the strainers had a pretty good amount of growth on them. I guessed that was the case when I could not get a good water flow for the AC units when I commissioned her last month. When I pick her up and check her again I will see if it was the growth on the strainers. We will have to see what this year brings.

Tina and I spent a bit of time on the interior this winter - thorough cleaning, more teak trim, stainless refrigerator door, other minor details. We're working on buffing and waxing this week, and I'll be replacing the engine coolant on the mains this year, along with the usual water pump impellers and an engine room cleaning. Should be in the water in a couple weeks.

Hehe..."engine room cleaning". I would bet your engine room is cleaner than the pics you posted above.

Well I added cutters style zincs this year for those *!X@!**! submerged unseen floating lines. I hit one last year in the middle of no where and it cost me $800 in a wasted cutlass bearing and reworking the props.
