Figure out how you want this to come out in the end. You can spend how ever much money you would like when restoring. The sky is the limit with how much you can invest. Figure out what you will reuse and what you will buy new. I decided to go all new and I think I could have bought a cheaper but new 20 ft bay boat for what I have into mine. It must be a labor of love.
My advise is to make a list of all the things you would like to do and focus on 1 thing then move to the next. I am restoring a 20 SF. I sometimes find myself getting staring one thig and hoping to another.
