Questions on a 1972 Nova
Ok so here is the deal. My customer asked me to move another boat he owns and I agreed and went over. When I get there I see a Nova sitting up on blocks. Long story short he says to me " just move it to your yard, here's the title. It's yours"
The boats hull is in good shape but somebody stole the drives. It's 25ft long and has twin 6cyl's. The boat sat uncovered for a few years and needs restoration. My questions are. Are the parts available to bring this boat back? Is it worth it to restore? What's it worth in restorable condition? Or. Does anybody want it?

72 Nova
The boat probably was one of the transition boats from when Wellcraft took over in 72. I had a purple 73' that was a Wellcraft with the newer deck, Merc 188's. There was a "Nova Marine" boat in Annapolis with twin 165 mercs and it was definitely a Nova Marine with IO's. I wonder if it is the same boat? Can you post some pics?
