    Yay! $10 Boat video! It is on my bucket list to see that boat in person someday. Maybe at a show or something. So neat to see how far the Grady-White has come and to appreciate all the work that you’ve put into it.

    Have you heard of Sharkhide metal protection coating? It will help prevent your metal fittings on the boat or trailer from corrosion. Have you checked into using coppercoat as your anti-fouling bottom paint? It is durable, long lasting and is not degraded by being out of the water like tradition bottom anti-fouling paint.

    • @shotslife

      Coopercoat… I’ll check that out… I want it to last for sure… I’ll check out shark hide as well

    Well that looks very nice brother! You’ve done very well! Also would like to add, if you paint the bottom black again, this will sound totally bogus but add cayenne pepper to the paint while mixing it. We do that up here in Maine and it keeps the bottom from growing junk and hair! It really really works bro. No lie! Of course I’m in the ocean but you never know where this boat will end up

    Wow! What a difference each coat makes! The stripe looks good on the video, nice job! I was wondering about the motors as well, and thought I may have missed an episode last year or something.
    About the cowlings, are they plastic or fiberglass? What is the plan for them?
    This has been an outstand project, truly eating an elephant one bite at a time. What a success!

    • @shotslife

    Good job, take your time and relax. Question about the hull: What are you going to do about the hull? I had mine painted antifouling with marine rustoleum black, and it turned out great, easy, and fast. I thought to give you a tip.
