Yup, above...

For those with the tinted/low profile window, what are you using for cleaner? Looking close, mine seems to have spots and streaks... like it's been sand-blasted or something.

my boat looks bad but runs great...I'm not too good with the waxing and such because with oxidized red what's the point...but here's what I do myself:

lube shift linkage...check engine alignment...reinstall drive removed in fall after lubing ujoints and gimble bearing...

de winterize engine...start up...run till warm...shut off and do tune up...
Change spark plugs (often fouled by fogging oil) make sure dwell and timing are set right (ancient points n condenser ignition)...set idle...check shift system...top off drive gear oil and motor oil...

Fix/replace anything that looks like it's going to cause a problem...this year I repaired some more rotted wood in the bulkhead forward of the gas tank...laminated in a new piece of 3/4" ply and filled in gaps with epoxy filler...then will glass over with cloth...

Trying to keep the old tub going as long as I can....22 years and counting!

Glad you mentioned that, I need to do that too, and always overlook them.

Since all the cleaning and maintenance is done in the fall, I start it up and load everything back in that makes for convenient trips to the lake.
