21' Chieftan Project - Ezmobee's Friend

[lagerdraft]

Long time coming to post this up. Got this Chieftan in December and have been tinkering around (mostly with the trailer) since then. Finally took it out on Sunday for the first time and only had a few problems - all of which could have been catostrophic failures but we still spent 5 hours out on the water.

So - many months later (and a new tow vehicle) here are the first pictures.

More to come...

Choice in friends, questionable. Choice in boats, excellent!!!

Welcome to the madness Lagerdraft!

That is one nice piece of old tin you have there. Glad to see her planed out too, looks like fun to me.

If you have any problems with the rig just park it at EZ's house until it's fixed

Red Chevy Truck, nice. Big ol Starcraft Tinny, nice. Having EZ as a friend....uuhhmmm, priceless.

Welcome, I love the boat. Chieftain, hardtop, would be perfect if it had an I/O in it.

Seriously, nice find. Enjoy!

Thanks all - I have been EZ's friend for many years now - can't fault me for that one! I do believe he said his main goal was to bankrupt me as I purchased the boat.

Looking forward to rebuilding her after the summer is over - more pictures to come.

Nobody is faulting you, but they say admiting something is the first step towards recovery.

Welcome to the club! 5 hrs of being on the water sure seems to be a great way of starting a rebuild!
