[QUOTE="Wayne Roberts, post: 506393, member: 33834"] OK here is an update on the restoration of my 1950 year model E Alumacraft. The intense heat and rain has finally let up here in southern Florida so finally after a long delay I finally got the boat prepped ( pressure cleaned inside and out, rough sanded with 220 grit paper, wire brushing and a final pressure cleaning) and set to paint. Was able to spray paint it today in nice clear weather. Also, stopped at a boat trailer manufacturer last Friday and ordered a new galvanized keel roller trailer for the boat which set me back $1,200. Should get it in appx 1 month or so. Galvanized, trailer tongue jack, buddy bearings and poly rollers. Once i get the boat on the trailer will re-install the transom wood, add the reproduction Alumacraft decals to the rear sides and the registration numbers. Only thing left then will be to shop for a good outboard motor for it. Then...........well time to catch some fish!! [/QUOTE]
