Re: Metalflake??

If its just the jell coat check to see how much of the flake is sticking out of the jell coat. If its rough the gell coat is thin. If its not to bad use a automotive clear coat.

Re: Does a 1978 Vking need a title ?

Deppending on state you may not need to reg. In MN Crafts under 16 foot dont need a title. Get a bill of sale. The DMV provides titles if you want one at a cost. Use the hull id # to have a title made if you want one. You can have #s on the boat and the current tab on it but still have no tittle as ...
