man I am so glad I found this channel. Just bought an '84 Montauk 17 that's in good shape but has a lot of holes that weren't properly fixed... so glad to have found this man
Hi Jose, another informative video. My dad tried fixing a wooden transom on an old boat. It worked but looked like crap. At least he wasn't afraid of trying and watching him taught me how not to do it😂
So if I'm gonna take the z-legs, console and rails off to refinish boat I should not re-use the same holes without filling them in completely first? Also would you still use epoxy if I'm gonna re-spray gel coat on the entire boat? Thanks!
That depends on the condition of the holes. When I got the boat it was already disassembled, I assumed that they were all bad. If I had dissembled it, I would have made note of what holes were bad and repaired those. To be Honest, I think using the original holes as much as possible is preferable.
@@jasonsmith7809Your welcome! FOrgot to answer the second part. I think you should be fine with the epoxy if you use a high build primer first. Check with the folks at Jamestown D/Total Boat first. Their tech staff are pretty awesome!
