  Hi fergal, nice job! What paint have you used on the tank please? Got given a 40+ and cleaned it up a bit but yours looks incredible. How many hours did it take?

•

  I have a forty done in one of my other videos, I used Halfords gloss black spray can and there fuel resistant lacquer. All depends on how fast you are at polishing 😁

  In your Glastron restoration video, where did you get that nice top for that boat?? That trolling motor mount looks pretty cool too... that would've been a cool video as well. Very nice

  Would have been better if you actually showed how you did the restoration rather than after it was done, I have just been given one and need as much help as I can get with taking it ALL apart to repair and bring it back to life.

• 
  @1968ferg Жыл бұрын

  They are very easy to take apart the only thing you might have trouble with is the flywheel to do this get someone to hold the engine by the flywheel loosen the nut and hit it a wack. Here is a link to some of my restorations that might help you out www.boards.ie/discussion/2057219073/seagull-restoration/p1

  Hi Olga, you can buy the plans from "Glen-L" just look for crackerbox if it is your first time building a boat I would also recommend their books "boat building with plywood " and "inboard motor installation " Some of my other videos have images of the build and there are some on Pinterest . Best of luck if you do decide to build one.
