Gillie's right!! Then you can fix the bow light, put on some nice cleats, etc. When those tough things are finished you should do the easy one.....solid transom and a bracket.

That aluminum plate across the transom is hiding issues.

Good luck and welcome to the SeaCraft crazies!!

I was thinking the same thing DonV.

Congrats Capt. Tom! If it ain't leaking or creaking to bad toss her in the water and start to shake it down, you'll figure out what, where and when to start on pretty quick. Good luck!

Welcome to CSC!
Looks like a lot of original factory equipment onboard.
She should clean up real nice. Give me your hull number and I'll tell you when she came out of the mold................
