Looks like the hull has a nice "faux cracked finish". Good Luck.

She does have a lot of work that needs done. But as a big part of the boating history of SeaCraft and of Florida. I feel that I must put this old girl back on the water and do so with her in picture pefact form. It is a big challange as well a learning thing. I will be asking many questions along the way for sure. But think about how cool it will be to load up on a 1966 SeaCraft ( The first bow Rider) and take the wife and kid to dinner. This baby I hope will turn heads. Thanks for the well wishes Capt Robert

Kudos to you for taking on something like that. Great to see one more coming back from the dead.
