Finally I own a Seacraft on the Westcoast!

[MKG]

Hey guys,

Was on the boat today preparing to get it in the water for the weekend - have a few questions:

1) On the inside where the carpet is laid - there is a piece of wood (covered in carpet) which acts like a shelf - well kind of like a shelf. It needs to be replaced but I am going to remove the carpet and prefer a clean look without the "sleeve" shelf. Any thoughts on this - its minor I know!

2) Access to the bilge pump - the access seems to be pretty crappy - just that one lid at the stern - has anyone cut a larger access way?

I want to add another bilg pump the one in there is a 1250 but you can never bee too careful.

3) The 92 175 Evinrude on the boat has 300 hrs and has been sitting and they replaced the power pack on it. I am not overly familiar of the powerpack. I want to replace the engine but will hopefully get a few months use of it.

Any thoughts here?


4) What is the best way to ensure the tank is clean (aside from replacing it entirely) it looks ok but was wondering if there is an agent i can add that you guys recommend to ensure that condensation did not cause any issues in the fuel (all the old fuel is gone).

Many thanks!
