Hello to everyone , I am new to this forum, and have been reading post upon post of great information ! Just thought i could share with you my first boat purchase and ongoing restoration !
Got this boat for 1300$ ( i think thats not a bad price ! Its a 1973 mirrocraft lake fisherman 16 footer complete with console and 60hp 1985 johnson and 9.9 marine 2 strokers.
I have been working on it now for 3 weekends and just cant seem to stop thinking about what I have to do next. I am a machinist and welder by trade and this boat restoration stuff is so much fun.
So as you can see, ive been working on a flat floor and now i need to replace de floation foam in the seats. Then a new aluminium console and some trailer work. After that fishing time !!!
Pleasure reading you all !
