    So I picked the boat up Friday and worked on it all weekend and a little Monday but got a few things done. Decided to paint the entire bilge with a marine epoxy like what the repair guy painted over the repair with. It looks white but its a light gray marine two-part epoxy from sherwin williams. I figured this would seal anything else up and would be easier to spot any leaks.
    I also got all of the decals off the outside and can see what the boat it supposed to look like!

    I'm not too happy with the red part on the transom since the repair guy just painted and said he couldn't get the red gel coat. We'll see how it turns out but I've also already started sanding that area and when trying to feather it in, it uncovers oxidation and looks like crap. I was just ready to pick the damn boat up since it took him eight weeks instead of the three he originally quoted. I'll probably end up taking it to a local shop to get the gelcoat repaired properly sometime.
    Oh yea, here's a few of the transom and the bilge. You can also see the top bracket bolts where he ended up cutting into the extra wood on top of the other wood since those bolts were touching the gas tank and wouldn't let it slide all the way under the back area. The way he did it kind of defeated the purpose of those plates entirely but I guess there's still a 3/4" piece of wood behind that.

    Well, there's really only one way to do it and that's with gel coat. I might actually try my hand at some gel coat work one of these days since I have a few other places I'd like to get fixed.

    I rebuilt the water pump yesterday with a new seal and impeller. It was leaking out of the back of the pump and the old seal was hard as a rock! Put it back together yesterday and fired her up for the first time with the exhaust and all to check for leaks.

    PS you should probably replace those bearings in the pump seeing as you already have it all apart.

    I'm a bearing engineer, so that's why I'm suggesting you do that.
