Welcome J,
You have come to the right place. There are allot of experts in all of you areas of concern. I bought my first Whaler this spring, it is an 84 outrage. Take a look at my personal page and you can see it, I would suggest you set up a personal page also so we can all see your purchase. I have done allot to my boat already and plan on redoing the wood over the winter.
Welcome and good luck!
Chris
