Hey guys,
Been a lurker for many years. Guy a know in the rc boat world turned me on to the site. Now I finally have a boat to start with. Picked up an 86 shadow. Needs some work. Needs transom and knees replaced for sure. What i can get to on the stringers feels solid. Gonna take the cap off and check them all out. I know these boats were supposed to be somewhere around 1k so I'm going to try and put her on a diet. I have no others to compare it to but i build custom flats skiffs and we do a pretty light lay up, this seems lighter than what we do. Anyhow, was just curious if anyone was running in the 90's with theirs. I plan on building a new cap and running a low profile center console as a flats boat. 337577337577
