Phantom21 - Carbon Positive - Project

[Potts2002]

Afternoon All

I have resurected my old Phantom 21 (Mercury 200 V6) from the field where I left it about 12 years ago.

Ironically stopped using it due to young family and the now older family want it back in the water!!

The whole of the inside has been gutted and now I need to start to rebuild it.

Looking for any advice as to where I can get cheap/used/previously enjoyed guages and steering.

Amazingly the engine does turn over but will not fire, the control box was underwater for most of the 12 years do you think the kill switch could have failed?

Also wondering what thickness marine ply to get for the floor and does anyone have any plans as to how to make a rear bench seat and back rest?

All comments greatfully received, or mocking for wasting time/money http://boatmad.com/forum/images/smilies/rolleyes2.gif
