'72 Super Fish 20' Rebuild
Thought I should start my rebuild thread. Bought the boat from a guy who had it for the last 20 years out of Chico, CA. He said the owner of a local dive shop owned it before him. As you can see from the photos the boat had blue carpet throughout, lots of spider cracks, two soft spots on the deck, and a transom with an unknown degree of rot.

I ripped out the carpet the first day, and have now started to remove the carpet glue. I found some carpet glue remover at Home Depot that does an OK job softening, but it's still a pain. Lightly wire brushing the glue in several directions seem to work. I sold the motor today and am hoping to cut into the transom on Sunday.
My game plan for the project is to Coosa the transom from the exterior, patch and repair the big problems with the deck and cleanup the console this winter. Then next winter pull the liner and do the floors.

Title looks right to me. Good luck on the rebuild!

I've been getting everything in order to begin tearing into the transom. Last week I sold the engine, picked up a used smaller trailer so the boat will fit in my garage and cut into the transom... First unexpected problem, it appears that someone has attempted to repair part of the transom in the past. Some sections have what looks to be a pored in foam(Seacast maybe?) while other areas are rotten plywood. The problem is that the glass is really bonded to the areas with the foam. I'm afraid the glass is going to break rather than separate. Does anyone have any recommendations for a method to remove the glass?

Progress has been slowed more. They are saying that we won't be let back into the flood areas until the end of the month. Here are some shots from the morning of the mud slides. Been a crazy couple of months around Santa Barbara. The Whaler in the Airstream is my buddies boat he'd been looking for it for a while.
