Nice project, love the round front. A nice flag on the bow would look really good.

Yeah, ive been looking into restoring a boat...
What are you planning on doing it? I'm guessing paint, interior, all that kind of stuff... but anything out of the orginary?
Anyway, keep us updated...

ive got nothing too big planned for it, just a custom paint job (hopefully ill hit the booth this weekend) then im going to build my own wake tower, add a few custom details like a swim platform, stereo, some modern seating that sorta deal

my idea was to fix it up, make it modern and flip it so i can afford an inboard boat in the 6-7K range
