1982 wellcraft V20 renovations

[nymack66]

WOW , You did a wonderful job. I did a restoration on an 83 V20 just finish and completely re-gel , If you need any pointers let me know.
I like the work on the Deck (someday I may have to tear into mine) Seems like you did a skin removal correct ?

yup removed the skin from the bow and had to cut out the entire floor in the back.

This is the progress on just the bow:

Cut out rotten wood



Learning to glass over 1/2" wood, should have used 5/8 to save some glass work:



Trying to level it out with marine filler, was tough because of the size of the area and my lack of experiance:



Covered in mat ready for gellcoat



Second coat of gelcoat!



NOt perfect but good traction and finish. I am pleased. With unlimited time and $$ I am sure that perfectly smooth and level is attainable but I need her done by April 1!

Unless you a dock jockey like Lumber Who cares what it looks like, is a fishing boat so get her done and get fishing and leave the pretty stuff for the dock jockeys
