Wanted to post this in the main forum to see if there are any more responses. Already posted in the build forum. Thanks


Wanted to see if anyone would be willing to provide recommendations on a good shop to do a complete restore from the stringers up for a 24-26 foot center console aquasport type hull.

I do not have the time or expertise to do DIY..

I care more about quality and am willing to pay for a high quality rebuild- although I am still cost conscious.

I have debated between doing the restoration piecemeal ( fiberglass guy, then rigging somewhere else, and then shopping around for best price on motor, etc.

Versus a one stop shop...

I live in the Tampa/st. Pete area but would be willing to take the boat outside of this area, even over to the east coast.

Any recommendations good or bad would be greatly appreciated. I assume most would prefer to PM which is fine with me.

I'd also appreciate any advice from others that have taken a similar approach to the restoration process.

I have heard of the commonly mentioned shops in Tampa. I hear there are some good shops down the palmetto way and across the state in Stuart area but I don't know much about them....

Thanks
