Still needs to be stripped and flipped to finish the prep work for the new paint job. I was trying to save the gel , but the previous ownes kinda screwed it up when they perpped it last time.

Did you pick it up or meet the owner somewere?  If you picked it up you should have waved, I live about 3 blocks from where the boat was stored.
