Re: Tell us how old is your boat?

I have a 1989 19' Bonita center console. The boat doesn't have a motor or any electrical. The transom I solid and the floors are solid. It does need fiberglass work. I am new to rebuilding boats so I am trying to figure out, where should I start?

"Where I should start?" WOODONGLASS..."Fabricating Decks, Stringers, and Transoms"

Hull is in great shape, all white with white interior/ no carpet, non-skid only. Motor runs like new!
No plans of moving on anytime soon, love this boat!

1986 Chris Craft 16.8. Ugly seats, cracked blocked, but it ran, $600. Got it off of Craigslist. Ran it do death last year, patiently waited, found a replacement engine, $400, Craigslist, over the winter. Self install, plus tools and new crap, $1500 into the thing that makes me and my wife happy. OK, we like the kids, we just like the boat more, lol.

1963 Lonestar Biscayne 16ft


1954 Chris Craft Kit boat 16ft express cruiser


1958- 1959 Penn Yan Swift 12ft


The kit boat is currently flipped over getting a new bottom, the lonestar is freshly restored, and the Penn Yan as you can see still has along way to go.

Got a few older boats,
1974 Duranautic DN12 12'
1974 Starcraft Sea Farer 14'
1978 Sears 14' open hull aluminum boat built by Alumacraft
1993 Sea Nymph Pro Tournament Bass boat 16'

Had a few older aluminum boats but I'm always buying and selling boats so I tend to keep the nicest for myself.
