1975 18' sf

[dave s]

My name is Dave and I live in Boca Raton, South Florida.
Been a member for a few months, mostly just reading and planning how to restore this 18' that needs a complete overhaul.
Not in a rush to finish this project, since I have other boats to use.
Recently finished redoing a 91 Contender and have an 18' Sea Hunt to fish from.
I got the bug to redo a boat and it's good for my mental health!

The demolition was mostly done on the hull when I got it, and I cutout the deck, liner, and cap. Plan is no liner, flush deck/ no step up box in front, raising the stringers and deck, raising the hull sides to keep the freeboard, make the cap one piece, and close the transom for now. Thinking about bracket/ hull extension.

I'm posting this on my IPhone, so can only upload one pic at a time.
Also put this build up on BBC, but pics won't load.

Here is how she looked when I started.
