Default 78' 20 Master Angler New To Board

Gentlemen, congrats on this wonderful site. I registered here a while ago but really didn't post...my main home base for boat porn was classicmako!

Well this weekend I ran into a 78' Master Angler 20 that I just coulden't pass up. It has no power (not that I care since I plan on fresh power). It was frozzing (16 degrees) when I saw the boat, so even if the floor was rotted, I woulden't be able to tell. The transom felt really good too. However I plan on replacing both, as I'm thinking I want this rig to be a really nice "all out" build. I plan on enclosing the transom and hanging a bracket, also plan on probably replacing the floor and adding newer and stronger stringers.

I won't start tearing into this thing until late spring, but I'd like to start planning now so I'm not blind when going into the job.

Any comments welcome. Also I'd appreciate pictures (aka boat porn) of other 20's in the making. I like this site!
