Advice on condition of my tubes
Hi,

I have a 7 year old Coastline 7m which is a fantastic boat and looks as good as it did new. However I have noticed some damage/wearing on the tubes and I was wondering if anyone had any advice.

Cheers,

Some mechanical wear, shouldŽnt be a big deal. Paint it, cover it, or leave it as it is. May be some glue to prevent more of the colour will fell off.
