Fellowship-
I understand where you are coming from and believe me I am just as obsessed as you are. I am also a firm believer in taking your time and doing it yourself. I guess I was a just a bit naive about the total cost of a complete restoration. Considering that you spent about $30k and did the work yourself....can you imagine what a high-quality shop would have charged you to do it? OUCH |

I think we all are a bit beyond practical here, but I can't figure how you spend 150 days "doing it yourself" and then also spend $32,000?...I'd rather be fishin...

YOU GOT THAT RIGHT ED. I CAN’T IMAGINE BUYING A OLD SEACRAFT AND THEN WANTING SOMEONE ELSE TO DO MOST OF THE WORK. I GOT QUOTE ON JUST THE PAINT JOB FROM PROS FOR $6 TO $8 GRAND. FOR MY 2 CENSE YOU EITHER BUY NEW TO FIVE YEARS OLD OR YOU BUY OLD AND PLAN ON REDOING THE BOAT YOURSELF PLAN ON A LOT OF WORK WITH REALLY NO SWEAT EQUITY BEING BUILT INTO THE BOAT AFTER THE JOB IS DONE.
