and it looks like the Ranger came through the winter just fine.
Probably just a quick wash and light wax, power wash the interior and
we're off and running.


The new hull bottom looks real good - changed the lines of the boat
quite a bit - I didn't notice that when I picked it up in December.
Here's some images.

Season's getting closer - maybe first run next week.


Tom, you've got rust on that fender!

And interesting, that the green metalflake has now turned blue.
That is except in the pic that I saved and now it's black.


Mold problem?

it's fine. it show's the mold and rust quite nicely!

That "rust" appears to be a rusty tie down ring of some type. Either Ranger
or Tom didn't opt for the much more expensive non-rusting type. 8-)

The "mold' you are seeing is the edge of the carpeted bunk rails.

Very easy to analyze if you take the picture to enlarge it a bit.
