Anything related to the operation of your boat. Steering, Bilge Pumps, thru-hulls, bottom paint, etc.

So now I am now curious, how did the plugs look?? Sounds like a nice boat.
FWIW.....The above is just my opinion.

Bud37, the plugs were not horrendous. A little worn, but not all that bad.
This boat is in great shape.
Out of curiosity, do you find that water collects in the 'ladder well' on the swim platform? I wind up with 'green stains' on the ladder from sitting in stagnant water. I am thinking about drilling a couple of drain holes but don't know if that is a smart thing to do.

Yup, one of the issues with this boat....the swim platform is hollow and open to the inside for most of it, so any drain would have to go all the way thru and be sealed...have a look from the port side engine space....... :beergood:
