Default Polish Time

My 357 has been neglected by me for the past few years. I am now getting more time to work around the house. Took the swim pad off and now its time to do some polishing and repairs. The squirrells did not do too much damage but managed to chew the protective covers off a few wires and trim hose.



Glad I found this behind one of the batteries before heading out...

They raised the hatch to clear the flame arrestors. I am removing them and adding hatch scoops.

Mark,

It was all done when I purchased the boat. Speed is anywhere from 72 to 77 GPS but the engines are tired and have some blowby. I hoped to have them freshened this last winter but those plans did not happen. It is a TRS boat pushing Quad IV 26P props. Rpm was around 4800 last time out.
