JimV,

The bilge paint is Interlux Bilgekote (white) BoatUS usually has it.

West Marine only has the grey. You should do 2 coats.

Thanks,

Mark S.

Battery adapter machined from 6061 alum stock.

This will allow the optima holder to fit into the std. battery holder without drilling more holes into the bottom of the bilge. The cutout was milled out for drainage.

Engine installation day. My workshop is in a vacant area of our building addition so I welded up an adapter to mount the 1 ton hoist to the forklift.
