I will be following progress on this one.
Good to see a boat being saved 👍

Never give up.It will come right in the end.
Plywood and glue will prevail 😊 plus a heap of plastic card, working for assorted photos but will be a way off scale.. just better than scrapping the hull and no idea what it could have been due to the shape has been modded over time

Not and expert but bloody keen
I think we all enjoy a challenge and you have found yours in that one!
Enjoy the process of changing it from an ugly duckling to a beauty.

Go this unkown hull as part of an ebay purchase... Was Pretty much ruined inside full of chopped mat and and very poor.
My son asked me to create something usable.. So looking at hull and nor even knowing what is was ? We decided to remove all the chopped mat filling and sand it baks a bit to see if it can be fixed up... so a fixer upper .
So begins a semi scale MTB 77 of sorts..
will post a bit more as I get forward with this.. no plans just a few ref photo to help .. building this in tandem with bearospace emma..🤞🤞
