This is model "Gacelux" made by shipyard "Paglietini" in the earlies 70´ in Buenos Aires, Argentina. It has a 4 cylinder Mercruiser engine with a 120hp OMC stringer stern drive(that i think is previous 1970)
It is my grandfather boat and with him we decided to restore it so that it looks as much as possible when it left the shipyard in the 70's.
we have done fiverglass restoration of the floor, a full engine service, a quick look of the stringer drive(there are plans to reopen it to check that everything is working okey), also a new instruments installation and rewiring, we have not done painting work, only polish the old paint to conserve that green vintage style.
Thank you for the space.
Any question or suggestion will be gratefull.
