6bouys im in boothbay maine, basket case its super simple, if you would like some instruction i would be more than happy to help get started, there are also alot of restoration threads in the galleries section of this site that can provide you with invaluable help. These are very simple solid glass hulls which actually saves alot of time durring resto projects, ie- no coring issues, very straight forward. boat already has longitudinal stringers just a matter deciding how involved you want to get or which way you want to set the boat up. me personally i didnt want the old casting platform and 25 little baby hatches, i was going to use this as inshore BFT boat for fishing the good weather days down at Platts, the Kettle, and Sag. I was gonna run a level deck bow to stern, no step up in the bow with a single battle station in the bow. It would take a long time to describe exactly how i wanted to set it up but go in the galleries section and look at trayders restoration and stringer/floor rebuild, that is very similiar to how i would do it (but with a single large box infront of the console just big enough to stuff a nice fatty in) Call me if you want to talk i posted my number on here somewhere in the thread
