So after a long, long hunt I finally pulled the trigger and purchased a Seacraft. Found it on eBay with some terrible photos, with a low price until the end I expected a bidding war at the end but walked away with it for just over 1k USD with a trailer that is good for "any" extended tow. So a quick trip from Nova Scotia Canada to Rhode Island and back, a couple of wheels and bearings later it's in our shop yard.
It's a 1969 20SF, the hull is in good shape, the console has been forward. Decks have been glassed over once already, unsure what is underneath them, I can see some bare plywood.
Will start to dismantle it and start the refit this week. Plan on it running into a winter project as I have some pretty big dreams for after seeing all the phenomenal projects being completed on here!
Plans:
Pull deck and re-core the stringers and deck.
Re-core and close the transom.
Close the transom and bracket it.
Few questions, What will be the best way to remove the deck? Can I remove the cap and deck as one or is it bedded down to well? Should I just remove the deck then the cap?
More or less looking for what would be the best order of operations for a full refit!
Thanks in advanced,
Will
