Tim,

What year is the boat, and what are your plans for it?

[Bigshrimpin]

Title says 1970, but there''s something funny about that b/c Master Anglers weren't made until mid 70's. The splash well is the 70's style well.

He's a few pics of the big plans.

Bigshrimpin did you buy that boat down here in florida and tow it to california? it looks like a boat that was in the trader

[Bigshrimpin]

Yup. I just relocated to CA. On my way across . . . I picked up this project in FL for cheap. Only 14059 hours of labor left until it's finished.

That doesn't mean anything here. You gotta estimate it in the no. of beers until completion! [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Big Shrimpin'

Having gone through what you are doing. I applaude you for fully gutting the boat. I would do the same if I did it again and start with a clean slate. Good for you. Take your time and have fun.

Big,

Looks like you need to pull out the old powerwasher and go to town in there. I hope your plans include raising the deck an inch or so. I admire your ambition! Keep us updated with pix and so on.

I had the pleasure of meeting Tim the other day. We had a beer and talked boats at the local pub near were he keeps his new ride. Our ladies were looking at us like we were talking russian however we tried to make them feel not too left out [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
The boat has a lot of potential and Tim has his work cut out for him in trying to clean up the previous owners mess. Looks like he is making fast progress. Keep pumping Tim
