Thanks guys. I'll try to get some pics up soon.

Does anyone know the thickness of Nautolex? I am restoring an '88 Lund Tyee and plan on using nautolex on the deck. I am cutting and fitting all of the wood prior to ordering, and was wondering how much of a gap I should leave. Thanks, Brian

It is finally finished and I have taken it out a few times. I will most likely post this for sale soon so I can work on another boat project (Lund Tyee). Here are some more pics Dont mind the rod holders, I only put one screw in until I was sure where I wanted them.

I paid $2000 for an 88 bass tracker in worse condition. Check all that was mentioned, as well as for cracks in the hull. Mine had several along each side around where the console is. Here are pics of mine when I was tearing it apart. https://www.tinboats.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=28434

I just noticed I posted this in the Conversions and Modifications section. Could a mod/admin please move this to the appropriate section? I noticed it was in the wrong place when I went to the Boat House section looking for my post. Thanks Brian

I am restoring an '88 Lund Tyee 5.5 (18') and need to put in a new floor. It also appears as if the foam is saturated. The plan is to put in a new floor, epoxy it, and wrap with nautolex. I am going to wrap it in sections to that it is removable. Does anyone have recommendations on...

Paint is finished. Just need to finish the wiring and installing all the interior pieces.

The motor is an '88 35hp Merc. Before the tear down it would go 22-25mph depending on gear and # of people. The decals as far as I know are all original. They were really cracked, but toward the rear they were somewhat beat up, probably from bumping a dock or something

It is an 88 Pro17

I may try to hunt out of it, but I will use it mostly for fishing.

Here are some pictures of what I found when I tore everything down. The flotation was a mix of plastic bottles and foam. I don't think the foam could hold anymore water. There was a mix metal tape, fiberglass and a maybe resin (?) used (inside and out) to repair some stress cracks (TIG welded...

Here are some pics of the boat project I am currently working on. I fished out of it for a year and half and finally decided to fix it up. The stickers were peeling, the carpet was shot and coming up, the wood was horribly cut, the seats were coming apart at the seams and the wiring looked like...

Unfortunately I dont have any more picture and the boat is ~600 miles away in Ohio right now.

Could the boat be an Ouachita? This is the only picture I have seen that even closely resembles what is left of the brace on my boat.

Thanks for the quick reply. I am going to try and find pictures to see what it should look like. Brian
