With almost Unfixable tubes and a bust hull on its keel. It is almost just a pile of grp and hypalon!

Wonder if deck and transom are solid? ROFL

It's up your way Chris, I've started on a big ballistic, don't know what they used in building this boat, so far it's got no floor, stringers or bulkheads, can't take much more out of it, must have built it with cardboard instead of ply, I've actually uncovered Ian Ms seats as well, using the off cuts of the ballistic ply to make a jig for his back rests
