    Are these cracks a problem? I’m looking at at 2001 Rib for sale. It’s never been anti fouled but has these cracks in the gel coat that run longitudin

    They are stress cracks, probably caused by high speed slamming. As said already,better to find one without cracks.

    Removing paint.

    I,ve used this a few times and had good results although it needs to be applied a few times if there are lots of coats to remove. Zero damage to gelcoat. Peelaway Marine Anti-Foul Removal | Peel Away

    Portable generators by Hyundai or Honda ?

    I have a Hyundai 15hp 4000 psi pressure washer, and a 500 lpm high pressure pump ,also Hyundai. Both several years old now and no problems at all so far. More competition in the market now and I,m not sure Honda can justify their extra money
