I'm new to this forum, and to boating in general.
I've just traded a fishing kayak for a 1959 Evinrude Goldtwin Jubilee 10hp model 10018 engine.
I had recently purchased an 11.5' x 52" V hull fiberglass skiff (Tide-Craft) that seems to be about the same age.
I'm excited to get started with this restoration project. Any advice would be well appreciated.

I believe you meant to say "Golden" Jubilee, not goldtwin. 1959 was Evinrude's 50th Anniversary (Their Golden Jubilee year).
