I am stripping her down! Going with a new color scheme. Unfortunately I am only done half of one side... Attached is the untouched side and one of the side I am working on. This is only one of the many things I want to do before season comes in. Attachments:

Looks good what I can see of it. What's your plan? Painting it?
Now as soon as your hands uncramp, get the other side and while your at it, get the green off that Mercury!

Here she was when I got her... It has been a pain getting all these decals off! My plans right now are just to strip her down. Going to add my own decals. Have done a ton to her already... May start a thread on it later. I am going with Navy blue. Already have a new T-top cover to match. I got the one side done. There was a lot of dock dings on the front. I wet sanded them down and it looks good. |

Looks good! I was thinking of taking the stripe off of mine too. I think you just pushed me over the edge  ps, learned this one the hard way on my last Sea Pro, power washer takes the decals right off! lol |

Yolo, just know that when you do... You will be able to see it until it fades like the rest of the boat. Ughhh

I know it's kinda far into the process but a hair dryer makes pretty quick work of decals

Yah Wallace towards the end of that side I started using a heat gun. On a side note, not sure if you guys mess around with these LEDs but I absolutely love them! The LEDs on the side point down into the water to bring in bait. Have one on each side so I can stand up front and throw the cast net. |

It is a Fishmaster. It does fold but it is worthless for me due to the antennas. Plus I don't like the way it sits on the compartments when it folds.

I am trying to install a swim platform right now but am entirely frustrated. Just doesn't seem to match up to well. I wanted it high but it seems if you put it too high you can't get to the back side due to all the foam.
