[QUOTE="DVeasey, post: 263976, member: 5720"] Well, finally went out and took some pictures of it, as it is now, before I do any sort of work on her. (Let's hope that I can get them posted right). I took a few quick measurements and from bow to stern she is 13' 10", transom is 3' 11" wide & 1' 3" deep, widest point is 4' 4.75", depth at center bench is 1' 6". Apparently when the guy I bought it from purchased it about 14 years ago, it was painted camo and he hand stripped that, and painted the inside with an industrial paint that had a bit of a grit to it (light bluish, you can see that most has already peeled off). There is one spot he discovered when stripping the pain where there is a Bondo patch, which must have been a dent as there is no sign of anything on the inside. There was a little seepage around a couple of the bottom supports, which was patched with marine fiberglass. Well, keep the tips coming, and I'm off to read through more of your conversions for ideas! Dale [img]https://i1067.photobucket.com/albums/u432/DVeasey13/P5200052.jpg?t=1337541805[/img] [/QUOTE]
