I have a 1984 Grady White 241. I need help with the repair/restoration.
I'm in East Rutherford NJ, zip code 07073.
I just don't have the time, work is insane, Sandy kicked my families butt so I'm helping them with their homes and I have another baby on the way, trying to get my house ready for that.
(edit; please read the forum rules, no solicitation)
From what I see and what I did...
I pulled the seized 305 and drive. I have a good 350 and drive to go in.
I need new stringers and mounts in the bilge.
I need a new fire wall between the rear gas tank and the bilge.
The transom needs to be replaced. I drilled and found rot.
I drilled the stringers to the left and right of the gas tanks. It's my opinion they are ok.
I pulled foam from the left and right of the bilge. It is dry and ok.
I need the motor installed after the repair work, I need a new rear (small) gas tank installed, the drive installed.
And all the other work and such after that.
The work can be done at my location, the boat is on a trailer at my work. I have access to electric and fork lifts.
I'm just looking to get the job done right.
and I guess I'm just asking for opinions, leads or maybe first hand experience on finding a reliable person to do this work.
Thanks.
