About two months ago I picked up a 1976 Thundercraft 16' Tri-hull hull and trailer for 100 bucks.(just the hull and trailer) Thought I could use a good project of some sort. Floor was rotten and I had to replace. Re-upholstered all of the seating. Bought an outboard motor and basically repaired or replaced every nut and bolt in the thing. It is still a work in progress, but she will be ready for the spring of 2010! I would like to thank the Iboats forums community for all of the great advice and how-to's. If it weren't for this site, I don't think I could have done it.

Thank you,

Pat

I think I will. Unfortunately the floor has been already replaced. We had separated the top from the bottom, and thats back together.No pics :( at all yet... I thought it would be a relatively inexpensive project. haha Oh well, I plan on keeping it for a few, so my time put into it doesn't matter. Keeping me out of my wife's hair....Priceless... I will take some pics and post soon.

DECK, pjcmodem, DECK. Boats do not have floors.

Good luck, and carry on. :)

SOLE man SOLE - While boats do have decks, they're on the topsides, not the floor of the cockpit or cabin!!!! :)
