Complete restoration 15' fiberglass Canadian Chestnut Runabout.
It appeared that the restoration work was supposed to be at the floor level, but soon reality proved to be that the stringers underneath the floor were rotten. So here we go for a long journey of restoring the stringers, keel, floor along with the hull patching.. more coming soon (1127 viewed so far)
