My cuz' Greg came down from the Artic Tundra of New Hampshire this past week to work on the 1969 20 SF
that Fred turned me onto in September this past year.
Thats right this was a FREE SeaCraft. I brought it to
Area 442. When Cuz' found out he claimed dibs on it!

I gladly said it is yours!
My brother-in law and Greg broke out the sawz-all and
DA and went to work.....

The rainy day she arrived.

In the barn

Coming out after de-rigging

Time for cutting and sanding.

The race is on!

More later, Ken

Look in the platform on the stern it looks like it was used commercially. Worked hard and hung up wet!

Tell your cousin and his crew that we wish them the best of luck. This should be fun.

Good luck to all.

Sorry Guy, they cut the transom to accommodate the
cable steering system.
The previous owner worked for FP&L and the dive platforms
are what you see on telephone poles...

The plan is to glass the 27 and the 20 at the same time..

They really wacked that transom up. Are you going to enclose it and put on a bracket? Or just repair/rebuild and hang an engine on it?

Hey Ken, I've gotta ask. What's with the 4" to 6" hole in the transom, looks like an inspection plate??? I guess with that and the steering "relief slots" it gives a new meaning to how to get a wet transom with no extra effort. Seeya.

I think that was the hole that housed the baitwell circulation assembly. It was on the older 20's.

I should have stayed and helped in the deconstruction.

But it looks like your making a lot of progress.

Keep the pics coming!!

Wait a minute! Did you say your starting to glass the 27??? That 20 is getting some serious attention.
