    Have fun! - Did you do the compound and wax yourself ?  Looks all pro.

    Hi........ not yet, I only washed it down with water and bleach using a soft brush and that's how it came up!
    I was a bit shocked as I was just trying to freshen her up before removing the decals. Once these are off I'm going to  compound and wax her.

    Fine job!  Now to have a drink or two on the loch. It looks like you have earned it.

    Congratulations, nice boat.

    Do you know if your prop is aluminum or stainless?  Stainless is harder, and any damage to it is likely to have caused some damage to the drive.  You might want to get a mechanic to take a look and ensure that it gets fixed right before you put it in the water.
