Ok,
Here's what I have: I was able to score a Zodiac F470, which is in good shape (tubes hold air, no major damage, keel fine, transom seals intact and still attached). However, the rubber is oxidized, as it sat out side and the cover was not fully around the boat. Also, the transom coating is peeling off, but the wood is solid and not rotted.
So what I need is info on any treatments for the rubber (the complete boat) for the oxidation, and what do about the coating peeling off the transom. Here, my plan was to sand it off and varnish the heck out of it.
Any ideas or sugggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks!
