Yesterday I bought a 1980 Grumman 4.6 sportsman. I regret selling my 1542 I built so I decided to build another boat. I picked up the boat, trailer, and 35hp Johnson for $650. I built my 1542 pretty heavy so I have new goals in mind for the Grumman. Light weight and all aluminum. I chose this Grumman for its size. It's a 1554 and 71 at the beam. I love my little 12' crestliner but I miss being able to walk around. Here are the pics of what I'm starting with. I started stripping the boat as soon as I got it home last night.
