I looked into the CPES. Any you are correct, I misunderstood what it does. I thought it worked into rotted wood to stop the rot. I think the pour in stuff you are talking about is Sea Cast. I hear is is good stuff, but it just wasn't for me.

I fought all week long trying to fit the first stringer in. After is realized that I trimmed it too much, I cut it to take the flatness out of it. It fit the contour of the boat almost perfect, leaving me with a good template. I made more progress in 4 hours today than I did all week. I should get the two outside stringers cut in the morning and start on the deck. If I'm lucky, I may be able to start glassing Thursday.

Progress has been slow. It is pretty difficult to work resin in this heat. My stringers are in. I still have a couple of braces and bulkheads to cut and glass. All my deck pieces are sealed and ready to glass. Shouldn't be too much longer!

Finally making some progress. Had to take a little time off to cool off, hunt, and fish. I'd post the fish pictures, but don't want to get knocked off the "Crappie" section for posting trash fish pictures!
I got some foam poured and deck screwed.

Man, that's some work you are doing on that boat. Good for you. Looking like it's moving along too. thumb

Thanks for the comments!
Finished layin' the deck and foam today. Just need to lay a layer or two of glass and then I should be ready to re-cap. I have crappie fever!

Hey, you're doing some awesome work here. Lot of hard work too. But, when you get it all done you're going to have bragging rights and you are going to be so pleased with the results.

I'll be interested in seeing the final pictures.

Nice job!



There's a fine line between fishing and sitting on the water looking like a darn fool.

I got a little off track for a while, but I'M BACK!
Finally got the deck glassed! I'll be ready to get the cap back on soon! Ordered new steering cable, hoses and pumps today.


Glass job is not perfect, but it's nothing I cant grind out. It will all be covered anyhow.
Going tomorrow to get the last of the flotation foam to fill the 'dog houses', the black boxes in the back corners.

just seeing all this thread for the first time... read through all of it! i gotta tell u man, its nothing if not motivational for me! i have (rather my dad and i have) my granpas old skeeter... same year and model as this boat is... but the deck and console layout is a lil different for some reason. maybe a year or 2 off but its the same boat none the less... in need of all the same stuff, decking, likely transom is bad, bad wood everywhere, seat mounts gone, wiring probably bad, and needs a lower unit. we fished out of the boat hard up untill about 2000, and its sat ever since . weve debated whether or not its worth the effort, money, and time.... but i think in the end done like this, being that we'd be fishing out the same boat we fished in so many times years ago......maybe it well worth it
