Thanks for that response. I suppose I'm used to people starting a build thread with a plan in mind, and at this point I don't really have one. I have a mostly original boat that needs some attention. I'll start with that. I'm in the boat rental business, and we have a few weeks of craziness left before I can settle in to repair work. I will try to get some pictures of the boat posted so I can get some educated opinions on how to proceed. Thank you very much.
