Hi, This is the first time I've posted and was hoping to get some feedback on two questions regarding a little 4mtr Markham Whaler that I'm restoring in Melbourne.
1. I've been quoated $600 for a custom travel cover (windscreen to back) and about $900 for a new canopy with a hightened clear front for viewing above the windscreen. This sounds really expensive and I'm thinking of just going for the travel cover cost the rest costs too much.
2. The boat hasnt been started for years and the fuel tank has sludge in the bottom, the problem is it's in board and I dont know how to flush all the sludge out, the only option I can think of is cutting into the boat or using an external fuel tank and I dont want that becuase it takes up too much realestate.
Does anybody have any thoughts??
Thanks heaps,
Nick
