Hello All, I just wanted to introduce myself to the forum. I've been watching this great site for some time and I have really enjoyed the threads and posts here. My classic boat is a 1963 Dorsett Skibird with a 50hp Ward's Seaking outboard. The outboard is actually a Chrysler and it runs excellant. I was looking for a project and found this boat on Craigslist. I contacted the owner, looked her over and the rest is history. I've had to restore the entire boat including floor, transom, paint, trailer rebuild, homemade bimini top, etc... It's been a real learning experience and a lot of fun. I'm almost done and I'm in the process of attaching my downrigger for my summer fishing. Hopefully, I'll get her out on the water this weekend!

Well, my luck to welcome you aboard...gonna get a chuckle or two about installing down-riggers on a classic but it no biggie, a boat...needs a fishing pole even if it's a G-3, sweet dorsett!

Welcome aboard, Rambler. You mean to say you did all that work and never posted once on the forum!? Come on, show us some more pics please. Don't be a stranger lurking in the background, we don't bite!
