In our yard!! It made it in one piece, this was August 19th. Since then we have removed all of the windows in preparation to reseal, we have installed 7/16 OSB on the ceiling to give us a good base to glue and install white textured FRP. We started in the rear bedroom installing 1/4 natural pine T&G over all the old wood paneling. We completed the back bedroom, the bunk area and are working on the living area. We started both of the Johnson 60 HP engines and checked compression, all is good there. We need to rebuild the carbs and I am going to take the lower drive apart for new seals, inspection and new water pump impellers. Hopefully we can finish the interior in the next couple of weeks and start on the exterior. We are planning a complete new paint job. Back to the original Blue over white and we will sandblast all of the rusted areas and recoat the pontoons with Coal Tar paint. We also need to pressure test each of the pontoon compartments and repair any leaks. My neighbor is a welder / fabricator and is going to build us a 4' x 14' swim platform off of the rear that swings up. I will post more as I have time. Thanks for looking!!!
