72 20’ SF Rebuild In RI

[Scottman]

First ever post to a website.

I bought a transomless and floorless 72 20 SF with the intention of doing a complete restoration.

The basic plan is:
Keep it pretty close to the original look with the casting deck, original console and stern seating.
Transom mount a Suzuki 140. The new transom fabricated from 2 layers of 3/4” Coosa Board
Install the replacement fuel tank under the deck.
Raise the deck 1-1/2” with the cockpit drains led out the transom.
Use all synthetic core materials and epoxy resins.
Someday paint everything with Awlcraft or similar.

I am learning a lot from the website, but still have a lot to learn.

Thoughts?
