Default Enterprise Sailing Dingy Restoration

Hi,

I've just aquired enterprise number 947 as a restoration project (glutton
for punishment!) and it's in quite a mess. I think the framing (such as
there is) is ok, but pretty much all the ply needs replacing.

Does anybody have any experience of a project such as this please? I'm just
pondering where best to start - upturned on the base boards, or right way up
and starting on the sides... I know the chines went on last but any help or
info on this would be most gratefully rec'd!

Also, the timber mast has had complete glue failure and separated into 4
quadrants and aquired a slight bend. I'm wondering if it's possible to
reglue this using a precise flat surface and reuse it - any ideas?

Or, hopefully, any info on the boat herself?

Many thanks,
Dave
