New to the site
glad to be aboard :D
I'm in the middle of a small restore right now. My Dad back in 1948 built a small 12' plywood boat. I'm repairing fiberglass, replacing wooden supports for the bench seats and replacing all electrical. So far it's been fun, I'm looking forward to getting her back in the water, It will move along nicely with the 25 hp merc. :twisted: 8)

Welcome to the Glen-L Forum. Our hope is that you will discover that building a boat from the bottom up is a heck of a lot easier than repairing/restoring one! (That's a shameless plug for Glen-L in case you didn't notice)

Good luck to you!
