Hello,
I am a first time boater and first time restorer of boats. I have restored several cars in the past and now Im moving from tires to props. I am going to restore an early 70's SeaStar Bowrider with a 40hp Evinrude Outboard. I have been researching boat parts and supplies now for a few weeks. I have a few questions. How can I tell if the engine is ok. I know the boat sat in the same spot 15yrs and wasnt ran once for at least 17yrs. How can I check the hull for cracks and if i find cracks can they be fixed? See attached pics. You will understand the help I am going to need. Thank you for your time Everyone.
