I am not exactly sure what the material is made from that encloses by Bridge but I think it is some kind of canvas. I have washed it with soap and water, but it does not come clean. It still has black mold spots. The previous boat owner warned me about using chemicles on it as they might cloud...

My 36 C has old Paragon Gears with a 1.5 :1 reduction. Working great after 37 years. Whan fishing, in order to reduce trolling speed, I will cut one motor and just troll with one screw engaged. Someone told me that draging a wheel through the water with out the engine running was not good for...
