Sweet looking boat when I saw it last summer at Great Oaks in MD. Can't wait to see the rebirth with new power. Are you coming back to MD this summer? Good luck with the project!

Some updated pics. A few more of damage, and a couple with the motors and transoms out. Good news is, the transom is in perfect condition.

Jeff. Sorry this happened to you. You are very lucky though, could have been much worst. Look on the bright side, you will get a new bilge and some up grades in other areas. Good luck. Your boat always looked good. Let me know if you come north this year. Bob
