Did you use your Industrial Grade Grinder to polish it??

Maybe you can find one on Ebay. ;-D

Nothing that much. Had a diver clean off the bottom. Also,
just got a mailsail cover made. The guy who sewed it for
me, didn't get the length right, but he's redoing it. Should
be ready in a day or two.

3. The best sander to use is a 6" orbital hook and loop
--6 hole hook and loop--60-80 grit paper. I also used an
air powered longboards for final sanding--use 80-100 grit.


Beg to differ, but the BEST sander to use is the Powerboard

Now there's a load of crap.



No, really, I did....honest.



Made a new mount for the bow red/green light. Someone broke it off at my
slip.


Those *******s!



Yeah, I'm sure it was a power boat.


New ign. switch for the Yanmar.

Maintenance. Boring.



new switch is not maintenance. It's a three pole switch off a motorcycle.
I wired it so I can start the engine ( or check the fuel gauge) without
that damn buzzer going off.

I take it then that you totally ignored Bob's adamant advise that an
Industrial Grade Grinder with a polishing pad is the ultimate tool for a
mirror like finish on your hull????

Well... off I go to buy a set of motorized router bits. I think I'll take my
Mountain Bike and make sure I drive back and forth in front of the store's
driveway just to be sure I'm at the right place. ;-)

Of course I'll tell everyone I went to the other side of town and not the
local outlet.

I'll also mentioned I raced & passed a Vette along the way......
