Boat Porn

[billymoca]

Ok so I know you all enjoy boat porn, and I have learned so much from watching everyone else during their builds, I figured that I would start a build thread and share mine. Please feel free to ask, comment, or opine on what you see. I value advice, as this is the first fiberglass boat I have rebuilt.

A little history:

This boat started in SF somewhere, was put on a new trailer in 04 and sent to oregon. it then sat in a cow pasture till this fall, when my 'friend' sold ti to us for a song and a dance - a great deal he said.

Well every piece of wood is rotten, there was a clolony of pack rats that lived in the boat - i pulled 9 large trashbags of rat poop out of the boat - and the motor was not worth fixing (it had a 200hp black max, 1980).

The Plan:

Our plan is to rebuild, new electrical, foam, gas tank, custom aluminum bracket and a Yamaha 200 HP 4 stroke - or HDPI and a new aluminum T-top

Due to deaths in the family and holidays I started last weekend. here is photos to date:
