Another sweet find! We pulled this southbay from its resting place of the last 20 years. Full of new herters 72's and what looks to be an original dodger that came with the boat.

Her bones are good and soon she'll be outfitted to match my rig.

Looks like a nice project.

Amazing what some sanding and fresh paint can do.

I call those barn fresh finds. Something that has sat for years, often found in a barn, that is really crusty and rusty but for all practical purposes complete and able to go back into service. You did a nice job on the cosmetic restoration.

Thank you Eric,

There are 3 on Long Island CL now if anyone is looking.

Looking great, Luke.

Neat set up. What would you say your top speed is Wide open with a light load? I bet it rips with a 15 horse on it.
