a few newbie questions

[cicora]

I'll be moving my pontoon from the storage place to my house on the 20th to begin the partial tear down/rebuild. I've got a couple of questions.

1. Can you powerwash the logs? I'm assuming you can, but I want to make sure. There's zebra mussels and dried algae that I want to get off.

2. I'm replacing all the furniture. What do I do with the holes in the floor from the previous furniture? Fill them with something or leave them? Also, currently there is a drain holw for a live well that I'm replacing. Since this is bigger then a screw hole, does something special have to be done with it. (All the holes will be covered by the new furniture.

Thanks everyone. I can't wait to start working on her. It's been in the seventies the last few days here in Cleveland and I'm getting anxious!

Welcome, sounds like a fun project! What is the existing decking material and condition? If you rebuilding the toon, you might want to take this opportunity to replace the decking too?

The decking and carpet were replaced before I bought the toon. Both are in good shape. Brand new carpet and no signs of rot or any softness with the deck.
