I am new and had been given this boat and it is in need of a big overhaul on everything in it. I need to replace the floor and the other floor underneath that is basically a storage area for under the boat. Once the floor is fixed I need to fix all the wires and circuit breakers with new gauges. After that is done I need to move to the seats and upholstery which is partially if not already gone because it was so bad. After that I need to fix all the pumps and then fix the motor on it. I had paid nothing for this boat and needs to be fixed. Once the boat is done I need to fix the trailer as well. I have no experience in this area so if anyone can provide some feed back or anywhere that I can get parts for a reasonable price I am located in Eastern NC. I will update when I get a chance of pictures of what it looks like now before I start and then post pictures when I am done with everything.

Re: 1979 Bomber Restoration

hi welcome to i boats......!

that sounds like fun !

may i suggest a little light reading ?

at the top of this forum is a thread called skanky beast revisited.

that is a really good thread with a lot of good information.

also you can read "hull extension in progress with pics"

another two are unintentional stringer job, and lund nisswa restoration.

that will get you started.

i know you are only going to do the deck, but ....just in case.

cheers
