HeyCoach Posted May 20, 2019 Posted May 20, 2019 I’m needing a dummy’s guide to boat care. What do do I do with carpet, how do I wash it? How do I patch holes from previous owners putting mounts everywhere? How long do I keep it plugged in before and after fishing trips? Can I fill in holes in the fiberglass where stuff was mounted? How do I get the hull to shine instead of just the glitter to sparkle after I wipe the dust off of it? What do I need to do to get the engine to shift smooth and run without smoking me out? Basically, how do I get and keep a 32 year old fiberglass Laser boat in good working order? Quote
Super User slonezp Posted May 21, 2019 Super User Posted May 21, 2019 Carpet-power washer and some mild soap Mount holes-small holes 3M 5200, and large holes you can use a plumbers escutcheon. Charge your batteries fully after each trip and top off the night before you head out Toilet bowl cleaner will remove water deposits. No answer for the motor 1 Quote
Frisbie385 Posted May 21, 2019 Posted May 21, 2019 Try Boat Bling Hot Sauce to remove the water deposits. Quote
Alex from GA Posted May 21, 2019 Posted May 21, 2019 What engine, make, model, hp and year, do you have and are you using the auto lube function? For shifting the cables need adjustment or the idle speed needs to be reduced. Snap it in gear don't laze it in. Quote
