A few weeks ago I shared my first ever boat restoration project. Before and after.
Well I decided to sell that one and go a little bigger. Here is the project before and after.





Yes, I'm looking for my next project. All work is done by me and I only sell them if I want to do another.

Did you do the prep and paint work yourself or did you have someone else do that? This is my dream!

If you sell it, you HAVE to buy another boat....state law.



Yes kidding but it should be a state law.

What all went into the foam decking pieces? Did you buy large sheets and cut yourself? What's the prep work like for install?

I came accross a company that has all the pre-cut pieces for my boat but I would likely have to install myself. Unsure how extensive the prep is and how hard it is to line all the panels up right.

The ability to restore something like you've done is a skill (or gift). The older I get the more impressed I am by projects like these. Well done!

I purchased the eva foam off Amazon and cut it myself. I watched a couple videos on YouTube and went to work. It's not too difficult, just be patient. Major price difference versus pre-cut pieces.

A little bit of both. Truly a blessing.

Very cool! Would love to think I could do something like this to mine but not a chance in hell. Would love to see more of them in the future
