Thanks for sharing and good luck. I love watching these restoration threads, I just wish I had the patience and know-how to do these things my self.
One thing about the boats that are not completely covered with carpet in the front. Those little pieces of fiberglass on the front deck that do not have carpet on them get slick as snot when they get wet.
Also make sure to check that transom. If its been out in the weather its most likely rotted on the inside.
