Yeah, I had one of "those" moments yesterday. I need to paint the bottom but there were some iron stains by the drive unit on the transom that I wanted to clean before I masked the water line. I had some FSR which is an acid based jell for this purpose......but once the stains were gone the hull was WHITE......but only where I cleaned. I had to drive down the coast to the marine supply yesterday morning and purchase a large container of FSR and completely hand rub the entire hull because, though it looked OK before I started, it was in fact all red to some degree......looks good now and is at the shop ready to be hoisted off the trailer and placed on it's boat stands. But it took the entire day to get it that far!!!!!

It is a domino effect to ever start looking closely and starting maintenance on a boat, best to nevah look. Once started it just snowballs into one job after another. I look too closely, just opposite from my dad who never maintained anything he owned, guess I became the balance cause I had to fix it all. He had a 15 hp Viking when I was very young, he ran that thing without ever touching a bolt or screw on it for 17 years, in salt water as much as fresh and it ran til a reed valve petal finally snapped off, went in through the engine til it lodged between the piston and cylinder wall. Never had a sparkplug removed or the lower gear oil changed, just run and sat wherever it was parked, no grease or a a thing done to it.
