I'll post a few pics here. But thinking the restoration thread should be in the restoration section not here in Tin city. Obviously not a SC.
We need the powers to be to make a Tin boat restoration section so all the great tin boats can be viewed in one area. Or is this that area?
Grabbed my son and picked up my daughter from work at 4pm. Told them we were running an errand. Drove to the house, showed the kids and they laughed. "So your just taking it" said my son. My daughter asked if I paid $300?
Hooked up the trailer and pulled it out of the garage. Used one of those cheap little pumps to inflate the tires. At the same time the hubs were greased and was able to get one light to work. Then the grueling drive home, all of 10.3 miles. Total time picking up the boat 1 hour 10 minutes.
Here she is at home.
Found it interesting that the seam where the side meets the bottom is 1/3 riveted 2/3 welded.
Something that might have to be fixed sooner then later.
The floor is epoxy coated and tabbed to the walls and transom which is also epoxy coated. There is no bilge.
Yes the floor is shot and it has poured in foam.
So let me know if this Tinny belongs here or there.
