Project 1978 240 Weekender

Well I bought my Dad's boat, AKA "Barnical Bill", one he's owned since 1982. A 1974 240 Weekender with twin 140's. One of and the last of three Sea Rays I grew up on! Its my favorite classic Sea Ray. She was well taken care of, but is starting to get tired looking. I so look forward to restoring this family classic back to tip top condition!

Seaway Island - Lake St. Clair

Projects
Engines and Drives need a good go threw.
Interior needs new carpet and upholstery.
Teak needs re-finishing.
New tops.
Hull needs a good rub out.

Look forward to documenting her progress!

Try to remember it's just a boat...so bullet holes Or sledge hammers won't help anything!!!
Best of luck and keep sharing!!

Nice Boat with great lines. I don't envy you on the rub out of the hull. I am working on mine now and its killing me. These old boats are easy to work on and usually paid for.
