That is the original gelcoat. I though it was a faded white or beige when we pulled it from the woods

Default Dinner break quick update

Decided the hull came back so good we need to paint the liner, windshield pulled.
Gas Tank arrived, aligning for pads and a few other things going on!
And to throw a monkey wrench into todays progress an acquaintance saw what we were up to and said " I have a boat that needs some work, if you want it you can have it for free" 80's 25' Whaler Frontier. went and looked at it.
We now have another project in the works.
