1987 Bayliner Capri 16' project

[1987_16footbayliner_capri]

Well i figured id start a thread for my redo but most of my work is gonna happen in the winter. So far as far as i can tell the decking needs to be replace for sure and the dash area fixed as its sagging a little. the decking seems to only be soft where it is under the carpeting any place thats covered like the battery area and cooler area seem to be solid and strong yet as i have tested the wood that covers to the bilge pump is strong yet. if that holds true (i hope) i really dont want to have to tear that area apart. The main reason im going to wait til winter is id like to get a little use out of it before i work on it. im also going to be recovering all the seats in white vinyl and either painting or recarpeting the deck in blue. i do know that the boat spend a good portion of its life in a slip. heres a few pics of the outside ill get some inside pics later

thanks the outside looks beutiful yet it just needs a good buffing. since i figured out what was up with the motor it runs pretty good down the mississippi. got some pics of the inside, like i siad its a little rough but will do what it needs to this season and get redone over the winter. i do have the ski area cover,

I see one major problem. When a boat is parked in the driveway to work on, there needs to be beer in those cupholders, not Dr. Pepper
