Here's a short picture summary of the modifications to my 1958 18' Alumacraft Queen Merrie runabout.

The boat had been hanging over the water for 23 years.

Beautiful,
Do you still have the old seat caps from your restoration
I would be interested. boat looks great.
 
Awesome! As you can tell from my build, this is right up my alley. I have to do the same kind of dash coverup that you did. From years of mounting things, it looks like swiss cheese. Can you do a little writeup of what you did? Materials, tips?

Awesome Job! That's my boat's big brother!

Also, did you build that bimini yourself or did you purchase it already made? That's a project on my list.
 
Also, I think I speak for everyone here...More pics!

I can't tell, but I don't think you have any final pics in there of it all assembled after painting. I'd like to see that.

Thanks! Sadly no. At the time, I was not aware of the value they held.

I'll try to get back with more info when I have more time. Also looking forward to checking out your project.

Oh, and the bimini, if that's the right term, was custom made for me.
