BoneJovi Posted April 16, 2021 Report Share Posted April 16, 2021 For anyone interested the boat is for sale in the classified section... This is an on-going 2.5 year project (because lets face it, when is it really over?) in creating the ultimate 16’ Bonefisher II 0 Wood, all Composite/foam built The only thing left from ‘85 is the VIN tag and the date on the Title.. The boat was completely overbuilt. The gunwhales and the the center console are almost as thick as the transom.. I purchased the boat in 2017 off the mbg site -link provided- (thanks!!) I commenced the restoration as soon as the motor sold a couple months after... I have well over 200 photos of the job done so if you have any questions, feel free to ask. I have changed phones a couple of times to I will do my best to post the work in chronological order so that its a bit easier to follow along through the photos. Enjoy!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was able to source the acrylic for me and it took a few tries to get it right... send me a message if youre interested in getting something done, I can send it over to him and get you a quote 👍 I started the wiring at home (pictured), but as more parts came in and time kept ticking along, I sent it to a shop to get it done as I know it would be another 2 years before i get it done that way LOL! ^check out the wall thickness of the center console Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
