not too short of a list, I am the type of person that hates starting something and not finishing it, even if I work into the dark.

i just power wash the hell out of it, then wax it.  The boat is a 2005 so the paint is still in great condition.  When it gets more wear, then I will compound first before wax.

I only needed 2 quarts of bottom paint and a couple of hours, its a huge saving then having the marina do it.

Nick,

When is the splash down?  We're shooting for the first Saturday in April, but the weather and work hasn't helped.  New motor should fire this week!

I was hoping for the first friday evening in April.  If weather permitting, I will tow the boat to work and after work head down to the slip with a friend, take a test drive, tie her up and sit down and enjoy the start of the weekend with a cigar and a few beers.  After that, it just a matter of buying bait and getting out.
