till i got the urge again!!....i bought another boat today lol ;D
i think i have A.D.D. ..i havent even cleaned the sand out my motor yet ;D

i've been interested in the old fiberglass classics for the last couple months...and happen to find one about 5 miles from me ! went take a look at it today and took a few pics.....i was originally just gonna buy the motor to do a full restore then wait until i got to florida to find a hull..but the guy made me an offer i couldnt refuse....$50 for boat,motor and trailer!! i'm going pick it up tommorow if weather permits.....no brakes needed ...only 460lbs... :)

here's she is...a 1961 or 62 Glasspar Marathon (14 ft) with a 1961 or 62 Mercury 500 (50hp)....all original hardware in fairly decent shape......will most likely need all wood replaced..but thats no prob i look forward to learning how to do it....engine looked great..not locked...he says ran a couple years ago...


wanting to do a full restoration on her ...including re-chroming all hardware....cant wait to get started :) here's some pics taken with cell phone..will get some better ones when i get her home.
