Bought a project boat President 41

1984 President 41 that went down in a storm
Lots of reading and learning as I put it back together
The Lehman 120s are rebuilt , but crank really slow.

Interesting! Do you have experience restoring boats? Got a planned project list or timeline? Got some pics?

With under 10 posts to your profile, you'd need approval with the pics posting, but I can help you with that if you want any.

Good luck on your new projects!! Keep us posted.

Only on smaller boats, there has been allot to learn and reading what others have done has been a real help. The boat is in dry dock, I will take some photos.
Thanks,

The control wiring looks reusable, but I am definitely replacing all the larger battery supply cabling to the motors and genset.
