SO...... Is anyone upgrading, rebuiding or redoing anything on their Hustler this winter? We all know what Rob (Strippoker388) is doing.

Wish I was doing something glamorous but I spent yesterday on a creeper compounding and waxing the bottom of the 388. Tonight I'll be doing the transom. Oh the fun!

I just finished polishing all my anodes and trim ones came out real good.

All the fiberglass gel in the cabin I buffed and waxed,even the pottyThe counter top had some scratches in it.They came out,My beer bottle would even slide off it.

The diamond tread was a pain to polish.

Ck out the reflection of the buffer on the tool box.

before and after picks.
I spent a hour or 2 on themThey were very wavy,ruff casting I straighten them the best I could,belt sanded and cut down the mid section rounded the nose ,thinned the skeg a bunch,Since my boat was in paint for over a year I polished these in the spring and they got a little cloudy so I repolished them for a boat show coming up here.

I just started polishing mine last weekend. But after reading this thread I am feeling a little pressure to stepup the pace. Rob, you set a very high bar. I could only wish I had the energy.

Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays All.

Happy holidays to you Rob, still haven't found the right replacement yet. Looking for something without power.
