Another 20 resurrection
So have a sad neglected 1971 20 super fisherman sitting in my driveway.
The current plan: Onto a dolly and into the garage Transom job from the outside, due to wanting to keep the storage and livewell 6 inch lip, the wood is REALLY gone so I don't have any fears of having issues removing it all epoxy and marine plywood Deck job gonna raise the deck 2 inches and make the old scuppers go away and plumb through the transom. foam core, could use some advice on what thickness to use, most likely polyester resin instead of epoxy due to amount and cost. |
A little work done so far:
Console shaping up http://i.imgur.com/ipFkqEGl.jpg Dolly half built, still have some reinforcing to do, and maybe add a center 4x4 for support http://i.imgur.com/UyDGDnHl.jpg Bad transom, really really bad transom http://i.imgur.com/QDum7BXl.jpg |
Let the fun begin!

Lets do this.
Tuesday I cut the outer skin off after work, and started digging. http://i.imgur.com/oeA0LyXl.jpg http://i.imgur.com/nXwlIZrl.jpg Quick bash this AM http://i.imgur.com/H2jaYqXl.jpg Hoping to get the skin area wood out at lunch today. Started drilling holes with a hole auger into the plywood to start cutting between the skins. Still need to cut the cap off the transom so I can work from the top down with chisels. (That notch on stbd the previous previous idiot I mean owner figured it'd be easier to notch the transom for a kicker instead of just putting a kicker mount on) |
Core thats left: meet chisel. Time to cut the tap off the transom area so I can start from the top down.

I'm happy you mentioned the lower starboard side of the transom, I thought I had a couple too many scotches!! :)

That's why I got the Marshtackie boat and am on this site - four sets of fiberglass box stringers in the '67 Moesly's! Termite proof! |
