reffited the boat
Submitted by greatrex on Sun, 2011-12-25 11:20
just my project over the last two weeks. the main fuel tank was stuffed so it had to be cut out and remade. i found that the front section of the floor was rotten and letting water sit in the hull so had to turn it into a self draining hull and replace the floor and glass it back together. i decided it need a new paint job thats made it look like a million bucks now. new wiring to everything was done. the boat is now ready to be sold at the end of summer although open to any offers if interested. the total cost of every was only $750 as everything was done by myself.
cheers andrew.
