Re: Mahogany Restorations

If you get an old Chris Craft, you can go here

http://www.mariner.org/

to find out everything about your particular boat. They have all the old build records for Chris Craft.

Sorry to be so long in posting this, but thanks for this link. I'm thinking I may be better off buying a "running" boat and dealing with some maintenance vice buying a rebuild project. This link will sure come in handy. There's a nice runabout on Craig'slist right now I want to check out.

Re: Mahogany Restorations

This looks doable but the logistics of getting to Maine have are daunting. Price is $3,500. The name of the boat is "Moxie"

Ayuh,...

How ironic,..

A boat in Seattle, named for a northern New England/ Maineiac soft drink....

Btw,...
I haul cases of Moxie here from Maine,...
Just for the occasional taste of an earlier Home....

Re: Mahogany Restorations

Here are a couple pictures of my 67 CC ski boat. I also looked for a mahogany boat but I thought I should cut my teeth on a plywood boat instead. They are a lot more plentiful and generally easier to work on. I completely sanded the bottom, applied CEPES and then painted it with a catalyzed enamel.
