1969 Glassmaster Runabout resto

[anthony7]

Hey I picked up a 1969 Glassmaster about a month ago for $150. Has a 35hp Evinrude Lark that I'm gonna get started on once I know for sure the snow is gone! I can only work on the boat weekends because I'm away at school all week so progress is gonna be slow for now. I ripped up the floor today now that most of the snow is gone, stringers are actually solid, they're glassed in well, surprising because the haul was filled with water. Got the pics of the progress so far;

Next weekend I plan on finishing removing the plywood, grinding down and smoothing out where the old fiberglass met the old plywood, and take an air compressor and blow it all out.

Any suggestions on epoxy/resin brands?

Thanks, any idea how much I'd need to cover a boat like mine? lol

How's the restoration coming?

I have finally found someone with an identical boat to mine!

I'd like to hear more of the progress of your boat.

Here's mine.
