Re: Taureau modifications

I cut out a U-shaped section of the deck behind each of the foot pegs. I have photos somewhere and will attempt to post them; attemp is the key word here.

circa late 1980s Mad River stickers

I'm looking for a set of circa late 1980's Mad River stickers for the ME I'm refurbishing. Anybody have any or know where I can get them.
Thanks,

Any Millbrooks at GAF?

After Wednesdays carry-out on the Chattooga I'm even more in heat for a Millbrook and would love to one. Not too particular about which model. I'll be at GAF and would love to demo one.

Re: Polishing gel coat...

For a cost effective (cheap) variable speed buffer/grinder go to Harbor Freight. The price can't be beat. Light weight and easy to control.

Re: Taureau modifications

To remedy the same problems I had on my Taureau I poured 2 part 2 oz. marine foam in the bow and stern plus I added a drain plug. I also experienced foot entrapment so I modified the top of the decks to prevent it from happening.

Re: Mad River ME DC to Atl

Thanks to Nathan Sims and Burton Greer for getting the ME to Suwanee. Already have it scrubbed clean and gutted. New gunnels start today and the search for a pedistal starts right now. Anybody got a pedistal for sale?
Thanks for the help.

Re: Mad River ME DC to Atl

BobH and Matt,

Thanks for the offer but having someone meet up in WV and then deal with it till they get back to Ga is a bit much to ask. Anyone headed to GAF from the DC area? I'm headed up on Thursday.
