The tank is still going to need some filler but it wont take much. As its a painted tank I don’t want to spend the time it would take to get everything out. When I put the motor together. I was missing one part. It had to be where I dumped my cleaning bucket in January. Been waiting for the snow to melt.

A "Boathouse Repair" is one that done without having tools or the skills to do it properly.

That tank is down right presentable!
With this warm weather, it shouldn’t be
long before the barrel test!

Prepare to be boarded!

Wow! Looks great, Tubs. I got mine running after our discussion of replacing the cooling line but I think I’ll put a bag over the tank when I bring it to a meet.
