Hey, just got this boat today and I need to replace some things, anyone have a part number or a place to buy it from?

Propeller
Front Nav Light
Tachometer
Extra Key
Spare fuses

These are probably just general use stuff

Strap for fuel tank
Battery Connectors for accessories

The bottom of the boat is pretty dirty with barnacles or something any idea on how to clean them off?
The seats are dirty too and the floorboards any ideas on those?

I also need a new trailer, any ideas?

Thanks :)

I have a 2006 130. I have made a ton of modifications to it over the winter. I added a Garmin chartplotter, a horn, bilge pump, relocated the light, replaced the steering wheel, added a compass, and a switch panel. It has been a blast.

Here is where I got the gas tank strap from:

When you find the tach, please let me know! That is on the list next. I would like to upgrade to a smart tach I think though. But might wait on a repower in the coming years.
