By all means if you are allowed to strip the boat first, do so! Not only will that get you more $$ for the new boat it will help the rest of us Marinetters.

Re: Scrap it or save it. Need advice!
Have to agree. The lawyers would eat up anything you might get. Use the $$ to buy another nice Marinette! Lots of them out there.

Re: Nightmare
Personally--and living hours away from my marina--i never left her in the water all winter.
I hope you get out of this okay.

Re: Storing Kayaks
What you have to watch out for is that the ends of the kayak don't protrude to one side so far that they can smash into a piling. (Ah-hem!)
I would think there's no way can you store them on the swim platform without their getting in the way. You may have to live with that.

Re: Storing Kayaks
I would think you could fabricate a simple wooden rack to store them on the swim platform. But upside down since it's hell trying to pour the rainwater out (like trying to dump water out of a tire).

Re: Installing Diesel Heater
If you plan to run the heater under way, the exhaust must be located aft--right?

Re: Sanding to bright Aluminum
Concerning that slippery coating, I wrote: "That stuff sounds good enough for me to try it on my kayak."
Scott (nice fellow and a kayaker) replied that the plastic surface of a kayak won't hold paint. Oh well...
