Hey guys,
Wish I would have found this site a year ago. That's when I starting working on my new boat. pictures attched. It's a 1967 monark Bass boat, was used in a freshwater fishing club until the early 80's then it sat in a field unsued until I happened onto it. Got it for free and got to work. Just about have it finished now, just need to touch-up the paint and buy a motor, and I may build some nifty rod holders I saw on the site. At anyrate I just wanted to introduce myself and say thanks for all the info.
Casey

Here are some after pictures, it's been one year of weekend work and a lot of foul language, but I just about got it done. done for now anyway.

Welcome aboard.
Looks like that boat was becoming part of the field.
Nice pictures,like to see some more.
 
Welcome to the site.

Great job on the boat. What a difference from the pic in the Field. well done
 
Oh man, looks to me like you performed a miracle ! You have GOT to add more pictures of the restoration process. Guys on this site eat this stuff up! Very nice.
 
I'd sure be interested on reading and seeing more details myself.

Yours is an incredible find and a brilliant restoration\customization!

I'm still waiting to stumble onto my own Discarded Golden Nugget!

In my dreams, it's the same style chassis in 19.8ft with a 84 to 96" transom.

I can dream...

I would love to see more pictures of your boat in sunlight.

Cheers!

I am still waiting on my stack of 4 x 20 foot sections of 3/16 thickness, 5083 alloy aluminum, with a 140 Johnson/Evinrude sitting on top......
 
I bet the hardest part of the whole job was getting it out of the field....

Oh come on, where's the rest of the pics?
