I recently picked up (free) a Glastron Alpha which will need a large amount of work to make it usable. I plan on making it yet another one of my "projects". There is a large amount of gel coat cracking on the deck, and 3 patches in the waterline corner of the hull that either Daryl or his other brother Daryl attempted to do with what appears to be automotive bondo.
Right now am unsure if it is even worthwhile to refurbish but am in the research stage. So far I have not been able to locate any information about the internal structure/design of the boat such as whether or not there is any wood underneath the glass anywhere, how the boat was constructed, ect. Assuming I go forward with this little project I will need to locate some parts such as the edge rail, and the like.
Before I start down that road, I thought I should get a whole lot smarter about this thing.
As I said I am just doing some research right now but any info you might know would be appreciated.
Thanks
