thanks man, that gives me a little more to work with...I see this old girl hasn't ventured far from the Tampa area in her lifetime, I bought it in Tarpon Springs about 20 miles north of Tampa.....it needs minor elec work with the lights and need to find a way to secure up the throdle and steering cables, ( so I'm not tripping over them ) maybe some fine tuning on the engine.....:)

well I've spent about an hour researching and figured this is probably what it used to look like....before someone chopped off the upper deck and gutted it.....the inside has been painted with that speckle looking spray on fiberglass, black and white strings like.......the hull seemed sound, but I'm gonna really have to get into it to find out more ?????

yea, I see your in GA, I snagged the pic from an internet ad from some salvage place N of ATL, they have it listed for sale on like 5 different sites from $ 50 to 95....glad to know parts are cheap.....lol

I will know more about overall cond this weekend its at a buddies house right now, coming home on Sat......

the hull appeared pretty sound for an older boat, but just thinking someone chopped it from something like the other boat in the pic makes me wonder if I paid too much ????
