Rich,
somehow I remember yours in a lot worse shape than this one.

Except for the glue and the holes, the boat really isn't in bad shape. The carpet has kept the gelcoat in pretty good condition. I used buff magic on the bow and except for the fact it didn't take off the glue splatters, the hull shines up nice. The spot I did last year was still shiny As for the big holes, there is really only 2 sets that are bad, the crack in center of the boat and where the seat ripped out. I doubt I will sand off the entire floor just to fix those. It is entirely possible that I take off as much glue as I can, patch the holes and shine up the non-skid and leave the glue I could not get off. I am looking to get her in the water by next spring and a little glue on the non-skid is ok with me.
