Last summer i had acquired a 1988 conquest 17ft bowrider with a 1988 mariner/mercury 115hp tower of power. Got the boat motor and trailer for 700$ brought it home replaced the fuel line. Got out oard running and ran boat all summer no problems other then a soft spot in the floor and inboard tank was bypassed for onboard tanks. Fast forward to 2 months ago removed floor found stingers rotted removed those replaced with 3/4" marine plywood and fiberglassed in. Inspected inboard tank found it had a hole in it. Had a new stainless 316l tank made for it got that all hooked up replaced floor with new 3/4" marine plywood and fiberglassed that also.. now wet sanding entire boat due to massive fading and then polishing. Going to run boat as is this year but plan on redoing all vinyl over winter and maybe refresh the tower of power what do you all think heres a link to my fb profile with the pictures of the boat as im working on it https://m.facebook.com/photos/viewe...notif_t=feedback_reaction_generic&__tn__=EH-R
