You can get fiberglass strands or make your own. Mix with resin and work into the holes. Could try MarineTex on top to finish and look for a matching gelcoat to brush on.

I used 7.5 degree wedges for my outriggers. Not sure how the Marlin translates to your boat though. Might be good to play with wood until you get something that works and then see what you can find on the web.

If the hull is in good shape, the boat fits your needs, fuel tanks ok or better yet replaced I'd repower. Anything you buy will depreciate faster and likely cost you more. The tanks and motors are the big items if the hull is decent.

$11K. Almost a 40 year wooden hull boat. Get a survey and pay attention to coring, stringers and most of all transom.

ANCO makes the replacement rubber that will fit. Bring one to a local parts store and they can match it for you. You can get stainless steel arms with new blades if you want them but $.

I'd grab a beer of two and search through the Southco website. GW uses a lot of common parts. You may find it fairly easily.

The layers look well wetted with resin. I wouldn't be worried, but I'd let GW know. The QC people may have to slap some folks around a bit....

I'd go online and get the manual for the model you have. It may be a 4200. I've changed the starter in the past but let the dealer do the oil and winterization.

No worries. It's the whiskey talking...

I'd go for it. Worse case you snap the bolt or have to drill the head out. I thnk they will come apart fairly easily. Soak them in penetrating oil if they don't.

I swapped out my helm chair for a Llebroc a few years ago. GW uses them to manufacture their seats. Check them out on line.

My 2 pennies. If you can swing it, get the Marlin. Bigger cabin with decent stand up head for the ladies and kids. Mid birth storage for boat rods and fishing gear - out of the way. Very accessible to the bow which for anchor access and even fishing. This is a key safety feature especially...

I've had excellent experiences with the GPS Store as well.

I'd either contact GW Cust Service or your local dealer. I find the best way is to just have at it. Usually commercial off the shelf parts are used by GW and if you can get to the part and identify it, you can find it on the web.

I agree with Dennis but I'd bring it up to GW and see what they say. Could get an opinion from a local glass guy. Maybe there is something they can do if it bothers you.

Looks good... I always do things myself and have a professional do it if I fail or if the job is too difficult.

I'd just go with a certified manufacturer, see what the options are and get it coated by them.

Welcome aboard.

1 and 2. Only operate Both if you have to in an emergency.

Looks great. Good luck with her.
