I know you did this 2 years ago but there is a lot of good info in this thread so first of all thanks for that! On your box that you mounted to the back side of the wall for your sub, is it sitting on the floor or is it "floating"? I am wanting to do the same thing to the factory sub on my Makai but I feel like the box will be floating.

Been working on the boat again lately!
Installed 4 taco marine fender holders:
Removed the pads from the swim platform, transom, gunnels and bow in preparation for installing my Gatorstep kit. Found out a plastic razorblade WILL scratch the gel coat. No big deal since I had already planned on buffing the entire top half of the boat before putting the pads on. Also found out a DA polisher is not very effective at cutting gel, getting handy with a harbor freight rotary now! Going to go back over it with the DA to remove the swirls from the rotary.
Here is a pic of the “bluesteel” Gatorstep, goes perfect with the boat in my opinion:

That blue steel looks good!
3M makes an adhesive remover wheel that you can chuck into a cordless drill if you haven't taken your old swim platform adhesive off yet.
It's like a big rubber eraser, kinda messy flinging goobers but it makes for a quick job.

Dang, I actually have one but didn’t think to use it! Once I realized the plastic blade left tiny scratches I just used gasoline on a rag and rubbed the hell out of it, took some time but did the trick. Gasoline seemed to work better than acetone or mineral spirits for me if anyone is wondering/future reference.

I think I spent WAY more time removing old adhesive than installing the new kit.
Definitely a PITA.

Yea that adhesive is no joke!
I also installed a acme 2419:
I’ve never used an actual prop puller to change props in the past but figured I might as well order one to make it easier and save time. Not sure if others have needed to, but I had to do a little grinding on it to get it to line up right:

Nice. I bought the harmonic puller. I couldnt believe how easy it works.

Such a great thread z28ke. You were the first person I got advise from when I purchased my boat. I think Im done modifying it for awhile lol. I pretty much copied you, with some adds. This weekend I put a sealed box with a 10" kicker in the dash, and a ported 12" on the amplifier/battery side. I also plumbed the WM bow bag to the 2 front pumps, and it worked great yesterday. I now have 6200lbs of ballast that auto fills.
