Hey y'all, I'm new here.
Wanted to share a new project that I finally decided to undertake. I bought a '74 Ouachita 1448 for $100....and thought what the heck. Bottom is good. No leaks. Plywood on transom will have to be replaced. Bow is rough.
I will post pics as I get through the restoration/rebuild process, I'm really stoked about this project though.
But for now, here are the pics of the boat arriving at the homestead, and I took off the wood stuck on the bow, removed some old galvanized screws from the hull, generally removed anything that rusted/could rust.....and got her ready for rebuild.
I apologize for the order these pics were posted, start at the bottom and then work your way up....boat rolled into the shop this morning 8)
