That looks like quite the undertaking. Are you being paid to take it away or paying for it?

Free does not mean cheep.
We don’t know you and your abilities/knowledge/etc yet, so don’t take any of this personal.
Get this boat checked out by a professional before you end up with it.
We see this all the time. Newbie comes here getting s cheap old offshore boat that’s uncovered and full of debris&. We warn’m. They kinda get upset we are being downers, they still drop tons of money and doing things themselves, never finish, and they are gone.
But, if you do this sort of stuff and actually know condition of transom, stringers, seat frames, floors, cuddly, mechanicals and etc, congrats and please make a tebuild thread. They are always fun to watch. A bunch of real good ones have been done here over the years.

Yeah, he should dig up Jbonz's thread on re-doing a boat, one of the best threads ever here, what this site used to be about before it got over-run with stupid expensive junk.

I don't know what that boat WAS...
...but it is CURRENTLY a trainwreck that you need to run, far, far away from.

all paperwork to prove this so I've been told. boat has been in heated storage for the past 6 years recntly the past two years it was taken out and parked where you currently see it.
Do you know boats rot ? Infet most fiberglass is wood that you can’t see. Do you know how to make such repairs or have 20-20k or more to maybe have it fixed ? Yes i do know that boats rot i have been told it will need and interior and floors replaced. don't quote me on this as I haven't seen it in the flesh yet.

The middle man I'm talking with about this boat does know boats and is telling me most of the information I'm telling you all.

I do understand what you are saying but I think she is just to beautiful to let rott away.
