What did you do to your boat today?

I’ve never put scothguard on my cover, but I probably should now that I think about it. Do you apply it on the ground or with the cover is still on the boat?
I’m going to apply it on the ground if the rain will ever let up long enough.

Gonna pressure wash the cover on a tarp and leave in the sun to dry. Then move the tarp and cover under the patio of my shop out of the sun and scotchguard it. Will do both inside and outside of it. Just hoping to stop some of the water wicking thru it when it rain for 2-3 days straight.

Don't do this on the grass.
 
Worked in a light rain today. Wet sanded the hull and then polished with 3m perfect it compound and polish and an 8” wool pad on a rotary polisher. The shine is coming.

Heck of a lot cleaner looking than what i got nice work!
 
After a few weeks of looking for time to install, I finally got my Cobra Jet Steering fins installed today. They arrived roughly 2 days after I order them. Thanks to Jeff @Cobra Jet Steering LLC for the great customer service and quick shipping as usual. I’ll update everyone on my experience with them on a non-AK boat as soon as I’m able to get them in the water.

Dude what kinda flooring setup you got there? Looks sweet. That in the garage or outside? Im looking to replace my driveway (20'x175') and concrete is nuts but part of it is a "boat pad" andthis looks like it could be cool for a washing bay or something
Looks like something similar to "Race Deck" flooring. 2'x2' squares you snap together. I did black and red checkerboard in my garage.

We got the flooring for our garage a few years ago from flooringinc.com. They promote them as garage flooring, but I would think you could use them outside. You might have to provide some form of anchoring that allows for expansion/contraction. I know they make tiles for outdoor sporting activities, like basketball and tennis courts, so you could contact them directly for specific questions on your application. We went with the vented tiles so that water, snow and slush drains straight through, but you can also mix and match to suit your needs. They also don’t get slippery like our cement floor does when it gets wet. As I said, we’ve had the floors a few years now and really like them.
