Re: DuraTech boats....ANY information?
Here are a couple "nice" shots of my boat the day I got it home. That's right...the same Duratech Neptune pictured above. It was a "labor" of love, let me tell you. I knew what my brother had done with junked runabouts before, which is what gave me the drive to try.
She had 3 or 4 coats of paint, so I ended up doing a wet-sand blast application which worked PERFECT, left the metal velvet-like, perfect for priming, no bends or waves, since it was not a dry-sand blast.
This thing had a rotted moss covered floor, algae and slime up the walls, "custom fishing" seats (ha), broken windshield, broken controls, no motor or trailer, came with 30 or more complimentary bee hives...and many more extras! :%
I share all this to say...if you get a hunk of junk with a nice overall hull structure...custom restore it!
