I thought drooling over boats was the only thing allowed on here?

Who is drooling over anything besides boats?

Hope you and the family had a great Christmas. Progress coming along nicely. Spring is not too far away now. Keep plugging along......maybe we will have our tins ready for the lake this summer for a little fishing.

Re: 1976 22' Starcraft Islander Rebuild

I think the plywood plan will look great.

Re: 1976 22' Starcraft Islander Rebuild

OK, finally have something for you fellas to look at.

Bow deck (seat box top) installed, gunwale backers installed, a whole bunch of prep work done, and the entire boat interior hit with two coats of Deck Over...

I really wanted to have the new work and the original work to blend right in seamlessly. I think I pulled it off eh:thumb:

Re: 1976 22' Starcraft Islander Rebuild

I finally talked to a manufacturer's technical rep, you should have no problems w/ DeckOver applied to scuffed epoxy It's probably NOT going to work for my alternate use, though.

Looking GREAT!

Re: 1976 22' Starcraft Islander Rebuild

Looks bomber strong and from this angle, almost like the interior of a fiberglass boat...Sweeeet!

Re: 1976 22' Starcraft Islander Rebuild

That looks awesome! tied everything together nicely, can't tell where the old and the new meet.

Re: 1976 22' Starcraft Islander Rebuild

Impressive work - as always. Looks good as is - are you sure you need the plywood walls you were thinking of?

Re: 1976 22' Starcraft Islander Rebuild

Nice seamless modification you pulled off there!
