1969 Mariner 31 rebuild

[CharlieCobra]

Ok, some of you folks remember the Mariner 31 we started working on last year and put to the side. We sold it as a restoration boat package and boy, did we bite off a big one.

It turns out that the decks and house were toast. Many of the overhead beams were gone as well so we basically tore her down to the hull and started fresh. New framing, deck clamps, and various other structural components along with all new decks and house.

I'll post a couple of pice but because there's 70+, I'll post a slideshow link for those who want to see it all.

Demo time...

At present, the decks are one as well as the house and we are tabbing and preparing for a final glass wrap.

More to come later...
