Might want to add another p into sraping. I thought you were looking for tips on stripping bottom paint or something. ---

If a mod wants to fix the title… I’m just looking for a junkyard that will take the boat. It’s 18’ long, inboard 5.0 with cracked block. Unless someone wants a project, needs a full restoration. ---

Some decent info here: [http://forums.iboats.com/showthread.php?t=237577&page=1](http://forums.iboats.com/showthread.php?t=237577&page=1) I like the “put it on craigslist for $20 or free and some idiot will make it his problem” idea personally. ---

I like the Craigslist idea but we are keeping the trailer to convert into a utility to hall the quads and sleds. Hard for the scrap guys to haul it away in the van or pickup truck. I guess it cant hurt to try. ---

I don’t think burning a fiberglass hull is a great idea. The outboard drive was rebuilt a few years ago but the motor is junk and the floor is rotted. I think we are going to pull the motor/drive, sell the drive and junk the motor. Then post the hull or cut it up and dump it. ---

uhh yeah, burning fiberglass is probably not something you want to be breathing in. ---

People will take ANYTHING free on Craigslist. Or call M&M, they have a bunch of boats laying around so they must take them. ---
