23 CC Tear Down Begins
I have begun the tear down of my 1972 23 CC as part of the first phase of its restoration. The deck hardware has been removed along with the console.
Removing the old wood from the Transom is next. Removed the fiberglass patch from the cut down portion of the transom and found some pretty soft wet wood. |

Re: 23 CC Tear Down Begins
Luckily for me, right now it is only time. I have enough tools and equipment that the work to date has not added any cost to the project. But once the tear down is complete, then I know the wallet gets real thin!!!!
Removed the rear cap and livewell where I can start to remove the transom. This replacement job will be from the inside. The inner layer was real bad under the motor area but the wood on the sides still is nice and dry. It is removing this good wood that will pose the challenge. My other current task is to get about 40 gallons of old gas out of the tank. The boat has a registration sticker good til 2001 which was probably the last time it may have been in the water. I think it is too old to even try to mix in vehicles. Does someone know who will take old fuel? |

Re: 23 CC Tear Down Begins
Looking good Professor but I have to use my magnifying spectacles to see the pic's as they are too small. Can you size then to standard internet size of 640x480 megapixals?

Are you using PhotoBucket to resize them? It's not the best way and it's not real accurate. You can set you camera to take them at 640 X 480 or if you take them bigger, use the camera software on your computer to change the size. Then upload to PhotoBucket and don't change the size. |

Re: 23 CC Tear Down Begins
Using different technique to post picture. Used Camera software to resize picture not PhotoBucket. When copying url from PhotoBucket it is better to select picture to full size then copy URL instead of from album. So here are the pictures again.
Weird how it works that way. |
