40 Years of Previous Owner Neglect

If it's a boat, it needs maintenance. That's 40 years of bilge slime. It took us two weeks of eight hour days to de-funk the bilges.

:D It was unfinished polyester. Now it's white epoxy bilge paint all throughout.

How big is this boat?

At least big enough to sub lease the bilge as spacious apartment!

Gotta admit if I could disassemble our bilge like that, I'd make it shiny too!
