got some stains on the hull from weep holes on the gas tank after
filling...any ideas about how to get these off? Thanks much!


Taht's always the problem I'[ve had with my v huls. the tank cap is in
front of the drivers windshield, and so is the vent. fueling them is a
pain because the pump[ is pumping then if not careful to shut the pump
down before the filler neck is full, the pump handle makes a smard
*click!* as the gasolinee comes puking back out of the top. OK so now
it's full, but every jossle and gas comes dribbling out of the tank
vent.


i got to the point where I'd wash it as fast as I could with
windshield washer and a wet cloth, but eventually I gave up trying to
get rid of the stain every time I slopped gas on the hull. . But I'll
detail them when I moth ball them for the winter. Bon-ami doesnt't do
bad but really dulls the finish, so It'll get a good scrubbing then a
wax job, and I doubt it will look good -as- new, but it'll be better'n
what it was.

Funny, mine isn't, and its a severe V Hull. Better design I guess.- Hide quoted text -

Gee slammer.. Machine gun posting again while you should be out
filling that garage with drunken groupies? Hey, only 40 or so
unanswered posts by you so far, can I say something back yet or will
you cry like a bitch if I do?


Let's see...an actual boater asks a question and little **** Ingersoll,
a nonboater, drags it completely off topic What a surprise.
