I put pictures in the gallery. unfortunately they are too large so you have to pan to see things.
This is an old boat that was used for commercial clamming up north of Cedar key when i was wasting money, i mean trying to make money, doing aquaculture on the side. I put a coat of paint on it so the mrs., aka boat babe, would ride in it.
I pulled the old rotten wood off the floor and redid it with fiberglass to stiffen it up. This worked great even it does look a little rough.
I wanted a higher transom so i made the side panels and used clear vinyl in front of the motor as a "soft" water barrier. Now I have the equivalent of 28" freeboard.
I added a brace across the inside for a platform for a ski panel and tied it into the transom improvement I did. The transom was treated with Dr. Rots products and glass was added to both sides so it is really pretty solid. A full rebuild would do better, but this was not too bad.
I sanded the remnant of the bottom paint off, reglassed a few scratches along the keel and sealed it with Gluvit. Great product and really produced a nice surface.
Like i said in the earlier post this is not the pro-customized job other people do, but it does look better and is in better shape than before.
LEt me know what you think, thanks.
