Overall the boat seems to be in great shape considering it's age and will need only minor repairs. The hull gel coat is excellent, some good buffing and wax is all that's required here. A fresh coat of bottom paint may be in order as well.
The boat is currently nameless, sounds like a good task for the wife.
The trailer needs basically everything possible replaced, rewired or reworked. I'm hoping to find some reasonably priced dry storage at a marina so trailering should be limited to twice a year. I'm very lucky to have a great friend who is letting me store it at his place until I have it seaworthy.
Lots to do topside, I should have a good tan by the time this is completed. I'm hoping to reuse the teak and most of the deck hardware, everything looks to be there and in decent shape. The deck feels to be quite solid, hopefully no rotten core or delamination. Besides the usual stress cracks around the chain plates I only noticed two small fiberglass repairs that need to be made. New paint and non-skid will need to be applied and I'll stick with the blue and white color scheme. I only had time this weekend to snap a few pictures and give it a once over but I like what I saw. Tomorrow I'll post my thoughts and pictures of the interior...
