Starting at Nothing,..........
Ayuh,.......
It Might be Worth it.........

I'm just Guessing here,.....
But,.....
I'd assume that the Wood has Rotted Out,+ the Stringers,+ Transom need Replacing..............

I think the boat is fiberglass.

Re: 83 Glastron Hull Damage

Yes the external is fiberglass but there are wood structural components as stringers, floor and the transom where the engine sets that can and do rot on a regular basis. These areas are well hidden with the application of resin and fiberglass mat so it all looks like fiberglass. Check carefully but if the fiberglass hull is good it should be restrorable.
