I hope you keep the forum updated with more progress photos!!

BYW, great lines on that boat! Should be a real looker when complete!

Good luck!

It really it. This is actually something I do as a stress relief to get my away from my business and take a break. Just got all the wood and epoxy/fiberglass in to start the rebuild.

I did what you are doing to a 1960 Glasspar G3. Lots and lots of work, but Definately worth it in the end. Keep the pictures coming.

Those pictures bring back memories. Ours was metallic sliver but exactly the same lines and powered by an 85hp Mercury 2 stroke of the same era.

Way to dive in! Really that's the only way to do one of these projects, you'll trust it down the road. When you're ready for an engine, there's a place in Connecticut that specializes in "remanufacturing" classic 2 strokes (outboard exchange) if you have trouble finding a good used one. Keep the progress pictures coming. Still hoping to see a tower of power on that!

Some updated photos. Put in new stringers, floor supports, and back supports.
I am learning how to glass in, so not the neatest work, but good learning experience.
