Re: How old is your boat?
I got a 1998 16'Hewes Bonefisher 90 Yammie.also 1984 Anacapri with a 1997 225 johnson.The Anacapri is 22 ft.Had a Seadrive,v-6.while replacing the seadrive,I found the transome totally eaten with termites that were still living inside.This hull is so well built,there was NO indication of weakness.The fiberglass was almost 1/2 in thick.I epoxied 2 3/4 plywood inner panels,covered with glass.This is a sound hull.
I often wonder where ALL the old fiberglass boats are.living in S.Florida,I see thousands of new boats enter dealers .s this poll shows ,many of us have boats over 20 yrs old.It woulsd seem at the rate these boats are produced,every person in this country should own more than 1.Yey i know many people that are BOATLESS.
