John, yes it does have some scratches in the bottom. A little deeper then just buffing, etc. will take care of. I found a place here in Tacoma that does this type of work so I will take it in next week and see what they say.
Since I just got the boat a few weeks ago I am trying to get everything straight so that I start out "fresh". But since it is a 1989 it has seen some use. Most of the things are just cosmetic. I am also taking it to Auburn Sports for a tune-up and overall check-up.
So far haven't found anything really wrong so got a heck of a deal. And the wife is happy. She can "nap" on the back deck while I fish. HAHA
But may give you a call after I see what they can do with it. Thanks for the offer.

Rich. I have done alot of detail work over the years. My old Ranger looked 200% better aafter I spent 4 hrs detailing the Gelcoat. How bad is the bottom of your boat? Does it have heavy sctatched in the bottom where the gelcoat needs repair? Is the clear off the flake where it is rough? Let me know and I may be able to help you out. John Holland

Doggone it Daryl, I might not have enough to get it done. What are you doing next weekend? HAHA
Also I wish you would get a different picture. Every time I see your picture here it looks like you are miffed and flippin' us off. LOL
I will look at car detailers. Thanks all.

Rich,
Jim is correct. Look in the phone book yellow pages and it will tell you wether the detailer does boats or not. Be prepared to pay. They charge you by the foot. They do have a price for doing the outside of the boat only. If the boat is other than white they charge extra also.

I would think some of your car detailers would detail a boat of your size. I am not sure though

Does any one know of any place around Tacoma-Seattle area that does boat detailing?
I need the hull, especially the bottom, buffed and some other cosmetic effects. I am not sure just how in depth they would go but I can talk to them about that if I can find them
