Odd. *Very odd.
Man up now ye swabbies!


Rolph - 18' Glaspar Stormrunner - sweet.


What does an 18' Stormrunner look like? Link to a picture?


It's really a Mariner, matey. *I calls her Stormrunner seeing as I had
her out in a couple good blows, and she got me home.
Don't have pics handy, but this should do you.http://www.classicglasspars..com/ind...ntent&view=art...

I'm busy building mahogany pedestals for new seating in my 1966 Chris
Craft 20 foot Sea Vee. I'm also installing new


acrylic windshields, as both were cracked. It'll save me about $260.00
dollars over safety glass.


I'm also contemplating painting the hull. The Boats top deck is
severely sun faded, right down to the " color " layer but I've heard
horror stories about peeling a year later. I will seek advice from a
well known body man here to see what he thinks. Ive tried the heaviest
rubbing compound I can find, to no avail.


Good luck on that matey. *These old boats are taking more care than a
woman, but we can't live without them, can we?

Amazing design. I got a kick outta the Head underneath the sink !!!!

That " wrap around " windshield would be a problem to replace. Don't
know where you'd look for that.
