I posted a few pics in the general forum for my intro, but will be posting the rest here. I'm currently rebuilding my 47' Dixon from the deck up. New deck, 3 more fuel tanks, rails, house, wiring, electronics, fuel lines, tower/pulpit, gelcoat, bottom paint, and name, the Helen L. Trying to have it done by the end of spring in time for the season. The boat will be used primarily as a pot boat as well as a tuna boat.
Here she was when I first got her
First thing was removing the 2000lb steel mast. Easy with a friend's crane. I also cut all the stainless plating off the rails and sides.
Tower and pulpit I'll be putting on later
