That way you can find small problems before they become BIG problems :cool: .I just fixed a small problem in my starboard engine. Water pressure was down a couple of pounds and oil temp was up about 10*. Now three weeks ago I hit a piece of wood with my LWP and instantly the presure dropped about 3 lbs. Had to pull the drive and back flush from the seawater pump back. I've gotten wood caught in there before. Too many twists and turn to negotiate.

Kept mine simple. Painted rub rail and hatches white, dropped the silent thunder box for a clean transom, installed EMI Thunder aluminum exhaust systems with Stainless Marine superflapper tips.

Plus way too many coats of wax.....:drink: :D

Formula Outlaw, 2 questions. One, did you sell your boat?
Two, what did you paint your rubrail with? I was thinking of changing the rubrail out in favor of white with stainless inserts. But, I heard that is a nightmare! :rolleyes:

Re: Calling All Older Formula's
 

Yeah , how'd you paint the rail?? I'd like mine to be white too and that sounds a whole lot easier then replacing :evilb:

He used Krylon Fusion paint. Works real good to. I'm doing the rub rail on my 357 with it. First time I have used it on a boat but I have used it on the plastic gas tank of my Tecate even spilled gas on it and its still there.

Re: Calling All Older Formula's
 

What type of prep work was done to the rail? TIA

Re: Calling All Older Formula's
 

I removed it and just cleaned it with paint thinner.

1986 302 SR1. 454/420's. I redid the rear seat and sundeck. Installed Gaffrig controls.

Don, I just read that whole thread about your 311! WOW! Nice job!

Killer TA, you removed your rubrail and prepped and painted it?

I'm still trying to figure out how Outlaw did his. Someone said he used Krylon Fusion paint. Did he just tape it off and paint it or did he also remove the whole rubrail? Did he use a prep too?
