What do you guys think? I think some new bottom paint and a good buffing and she'll be good to go!

A couple more from Boothbay Harbor Maine's floating used boat lot... 😁

Kind of sad seeing these old beauties rotting away...I'm amazed these two were still afloat. Up close, there was some serious rot going on, and a full ecosystem growing on the bottoms.

Hmmm, most of those look good to go. I guess for a first timer it might be a fair starting point. Ask alk he loves "projects"!
 
You know B you could change careers and go into the shrimping business. Bubba Nee's Seafood Co. has a nice ring to it. Here's some starter vessels you can pick up cheap.

The old wooden boats are self recycling and returning to the earth from which they came. The Glass Reinforced Platic hulls are here forever
