Hello Everyone!<br />I will probably be here awhile, this is a great site and I am glad to have found it. By the looks of it, there are some very sea-worthy individuals posting messages out here. Well here it is...just got it this weekend and we are still trying to determine exactly what we want to do with it...so, I am looking for ideas of what some others have done with these same hulls. It is a 23' Thunderbird...you can see some pics at <br />----<br /> http://formula23.blogspot.com <br />----<br />The guy that we bought her from, gave us some good ideas of what folks in AL are doing with these hulls, some center consoles, some restoring what the original looked like, and some cutting up the front cabin and dropping tackle lockers down the sides (kinda like a walk-through). I am looking for pictures, websites, wisdom...whatever you guys can give me...A similar hull to ours is a Chaparal, the seller showed us a pic of one in AL, it is called the Gulf King, and if we could get this to 1/2 of that boat I would be very excited.<br />Thanks for posting...I'll have plenty of questions.<br />Decisions that we have made are to glass in the back, put on a bracket and drop some twin O/B's on the back.
