1975 Vector

Post: # 18892Post JSU101 »

I picked up a Jan 1975 Vector on monday. It needs everything. So i started cutting it apart today and made good progress till the rain came in. Tomorrow i plan on getting whats left of the transom and most of what is left of the core. I have my work cut out for me.

Here is a pic of what i started with.

I cant upload the pics from my pc or use my links from photobucket :x :twisted:

You need a few posts before you can put up pics, I suppose it stops robots from joining and putting up porn lol.... Welcome to the site! Tell us more about the boat and plans for power/rigging, get a few posts in and then post some pics!!

You are way ahead of me with half of your core missing and not having to remove the overly riveted rub rail to remove the deck.

I will start my Viper rebuild thread shortly.
