Or, toss $50K at it and have a boat that still won't provide the fishability of a Pathfinder or similar layout.

These old boats have a certain mystique and boutique following. They were good for what they were, have beautiful lines, but there are better options for people that actually want to USE a boat rather than rehab an antique. Yeah, blasphemy, but it is what it is.
Yes, blasphemy coming from the guy who inspired many of us to start are our own projects. Hope all is well in Colorado stranger.
