[QUOTE="monriverguy, post: 370128, member: 15379"] Hello to everyone out there and thanks for all advise in advance. I just got my second Lone Star boat a 18 ft 1959 Eldorado, and it needs lots of TLC and then some. The transom was tore out by PO. Silicone smeared all over the in side at the seams and the stringer's. And the paint on the bottom is nearly down to bare. I will post pic's on here tonight if i can. My question is where do you all think i should start to see if this old gal can be saved? i have tore out the flooring and the sides and have filled her up part way with water so far just 3-4 leaks around rivets. How far can i fill her up safely? And once again thanks to all( i really love the way this tinner looks) John [/QUOTE]
