Were going to make a series of these videos. Were going to tear down the boat explaning what goes into it and the steps of putting it back together. If you have any comments or questions could you please put them in the comments of the video. We plan on answering the questions and comments as we keep filming. Here is our first ideo. Hope everyone enjoys it.

No paint since it's on the bottom of the boat a rattle can will work. Were going to start the process of the pump and setup with clearances hopefully next week. I'll keep you posted!
