Entire boat, when it arrived at the shop, was gutted out - the only
thing left was the basic hull and super structure plus the newly
rebuilt twin D-671 turbos.

The kitchen cabinets were done by the owner from scratch as was the
salon - all hand made and fitted. The entire bridge was rebuilt
including the control console along with the hard top. The interior
was all hand made - I had a minor involvement with the electronics
installation.

Took the owner two years from start to finish.


Is that 9' draft correct? Seems like about twice what it should be
for a boat like that. If that's right, it sure would cut down on
where you could keep that thing.

My next boat is going to have zero exterior wood. Even that cap rail
is too much for me anymore. I've had enough.
