Drove 4hours round trip tonight to survey a boat. What a disaster. Such a great old wood boat, stored improperly, and it's destroyed. Owner wondering why it will cost so much to restore. Lets see; new ribs, new planks, new deck, new stem, new keelson, new transom, new deck caulk, and on and on.

Squirrel/mouse nest in the main steel has rotted the metal nearly through. Everything is fixable as I told the owner, but for what it would cost me to repair it he could buy two just like it ready to run. Check this box to be notified of replies to this topic.
