First I'd like to thank everyone who answered my pretty much pointless questions so far. Turns out building a boat is just not a project I have time for.
So today I went and picked up my new toy. A 2001 14'2" Stumpknocker skiff. Overall shes in good shape but could use a little freshening up. Id like to repaint the interior. And shine up the gel-coat.
For the interior, my plan is to sand down the existing paint. Fill in all the little holes from old hardware. Then I'll put down 1 coat of primer and 2 coats of paint, all marine grade of course. That sound about right?
Also the gel-coat has a few minor nicks in it. Whats the easiest, yet effective way, of repairing these?
The transom is 16" tall. What shaft length motor should I be looking for?
Thanks again! (All ready ripped that damn seat off)
