I have a boat, don't feel sorry for me

[rugsrme]

I wanted to share a project I am staring to work on.
I have had this boat for about 3 years and it has sat in this spot since the day I bought it.
The motor ran when I first bought it but I ran it out of gas and the carb was acting up.
Well, after getting out on the water with some of you who were gracious enough to put me on the fish, I decided to get off my lazy butt and get this boat in the water.
Today, I tackled the carb problem and got the motor running really good. It is a 1960 Sea King 35 hp.
The boat is a 1960 Lonestar it looks cool with the Tail Fins!
Here is my to-do list, if any of you have any suggestions I'm ready for them:

New battery completed
