Hello Tjennen!

Welcome to !

It seems there is a lot of work to be done until you can cruise around with your boat.
But i think the shape looks great, and with a 140hp (as it was mounted last) it should be a lot of fun to speed around...
Did you get any information about the manufacturer or type of the boat?

I hope you will keep on to upload pics and write about your experiences while restauration.

Good luck

I live in Belgium, in Mol. It's close to the Dutch border.
About a half hour drive from Eindhoven.
On the papers I see MB Shark Monaco but Google doesn't know it

When even google does not know it, it will be hard to find out anything about the boat. The pre-owner has no information about it, too?

As you disassembled deck from hull, did you find any marks, type signs or stuff like this?

But i think the type is secondary, most important is to build up the boat again and have fun during restoration.

Found some more rot. Stringers are gone.
Tips where I should cut to reach them? I was thinking of cutting about 10 cm from the edge so that I have a base to start on with the new deck???

Tips or trics? Does and dont's?

Could be a Bluebird Marine model Jetstar or 510

Some work done.
Removed the stringers, all the rotten wood is gone now.

The stringers are 3cmx3cm. Should I make them higher or stay with the same size?
What are pro and con's for bigger Stringers? I was thinking of making them 3x6cm.

And after some grinding she looks like this.
How do I repair the dents and holes in the paint?
