+1 on right-angle screwdriver. That's what I used to get mine open. It was a real pain.

I need cockpit seat cushions and canvas. Am interested in the swim platform too, and can pick it up locally.

Also the water heater if it works.

Bravo 3s use two counter-rotating props. Are they both rotating at the same speed? Are they running without vibration and in balance? That kind of thing.
