Just amazing. Well done.
Jesus, great restore, super solid work!
Wow that’s amazing work! :tup:
:bowdown:
Wow that’s beautiful.
Looks great
I’m floored. This is so freaking cool.
It’s weird, time seems to kinda stand still when working on this. I think that’s why I’m going on 5 years now…it’s turned into an escape of sorts and I almost don’t want to finish it.
There’s a section of wood that once was bolted onto the rear of the hull, I’ll clean this up and mock it in place, but I don’t foresee any additional paint work going on. I know many boats run a water line, but I want most of the attention to go to the wood up top, let the hull reflect the water. There’s also a piece of stainless that runs vertically at the rear (shown in rendering). I have that all polished up, haven’t made a decision on whether I’ll re-install that or not.
Reminds me of this boat

I’ll eventually get around to updating this thread with more pics…but for now, this is all I got: boat is pretty much done. This Friday 3-9pm and Saturday 8am-7pm (Sept. 11 and 12) Canalside with be the venure for the Old Boats Buffalo Antique Wood Boat Show. I’ll have mine on display down there.
Can’t wait to see the finished pictures.
That rendering looks really nice.
This might be my favorite build of all time
Nice, look forward to seeing it in person :tup:
Nice meeting you yesterday Mike!
This project looks awesome. Every time I see a wood boat I think about how I want to restore one. And I’m not even into boats but old wooden boats look so freaking awesome!

He had it out this weekend at the boat shows, and got a pretty good story to go with it. :tup: I looks stunning.
