We put lazy jacks on our 330 and were not happy with them. Next year we put on a Mack pack and we love it so much my wife Maggie could be Mack pack salesman. She does most of the deck work when we take the main down and she loves it .

Does anyone have any suggestions about using a heat gun for varnish removal or any other suggestions that have worked well. We have several larger areas of checking that we want to take off and start over with new finish.
