show off your boats
Meet Theresa C., she was built in the San Francisco bay area in 1933, (I was told) she was the #1 boat at the S.F. boat show in '34. 26' of hardwood, powered by an inline 4, she may do 8 Knots.
When I got her she was in rough shape, the roofs had 20+ coats of peeling paint, so I removed the paint and found that the fiberglass under the paint was not stuck to the wood! So I peeled that off too!!! And found this!!
and this,
Dig out all the junk and rotted wood, then a penetrating coat of resin, ready for patching
More later if anyone is interested.
