Re: Thinking about looking at this boat, no rivets?
That's just harsh.
If it's what your looking for, do a through inspection, and use anything you find as a bargaining point on price. Everything you might find wrong can be fixed, the dry dock crew around here will help you get it back on the water better then new.
The Starcraft owners prefer tin boats in their iBoats area. You can ask a MOD to move this to the Boat restoration forum, you'll get more help on the rehab over there, and probably less heckling.
Jas tends towards more of a 'My chainsaw hasn't met an old fiberglass boat it doesn't love to chew to bits' philosophy, clearly...
The rehab of a glasser does tend to run towards a higher commitment of time, effort & money then similar size tin boats. But if this boat interests you, fits your needs, and is available less then a state & a half away, it too could be a great boat & project.
Good luck whatever way you decide
