Here are some shots of Miss Marion:The main problem with this boat is that it was fastened with regular steel fasteners. We ended up replacing all the timbers, frames etc rather than try to get the rusted screws out. We also replaced the bottom cedar planking with 5/8ths marine ply. Some judicious use of 5200 and silcon bronze screws gives a nice bottom.

Next step is flipping the boat- I’m not using that plywood contraption again, to scary- then we get to replace the decks, fit out the interior, installations and out the door.
