Zodiac 2.4 salvaged and restored

Picked up an old orange Zodiac 2.4 or 2.3 love the colour and I believe it's no longer available in this model in orange, if I'm reading the transom tag right it's a CT40 model 1998.

There was lots of old and now failing puncture repairers and 4 current unmatched ones lol all fine and she's holding good pressure.

I still can not post pics from the iPad on here so here is a link to the restoration thread on the bushcraft forum as I've already posted it all up on there, do hope linking to the bushcraft forum is not a breach of rules if so i apologise now, the thread goes on a bit in the middle chatting so to just see the before and after pics see the first few and last few posts, I will be taking this little Zodiac out this week on the river

It is much older than 1998. They stopped the orange color around 1987 or so. Probably a C240 . Great little boats, Zodiac used to sell thousands of those . I had a customer give me one over the summer but was just too far gone to fix. Good luck with it.

I believe it is a c240 I'm surprised the as new condition of the transom glue it's like the boat is new and I don't think it's been re glued, there are currently 11 patches lol and it still holds air for 48hrs the boat is finished for now except Click image for larger version
