New to the forum. Been enjoying all the pics and stories. I have recently started back working on my 1973 MX-15. I replaced the transom and painted the bottom 28 years ago when I was 17. Life got busy and I stored it until this May 25th. Since then I have been working on it like a mad man and hope to have it completed soon. It has been a wild ride and I am getting very close.
 
Got a little boat time in today and learned yet another lesson in life. Fill up, seal up, all those pesky holes where the rub rail was mounted. Do this before you paint it. It will be better when you remount it. I did not follow these easy steps and made it a challenge today. Either way, salvaged the original rub rail, installing it tomorrow with new insert. Things are looking good!
