Thanks everyone. I'm excited to get to work on this one and build it how I want.

The interior was trash. Water logged foam, and rotted wood decking. Two layers no less. I knew this going in though.
The interior as it was, was wide open with a small front deck.
I'm going to remove the port console, and then extend the length of the front deck so it extends to the back of the starboard console.

I'm going to have it scrubbed, and gluvit installed on all the seams and rivets in a week or so.

Check out this picture of what was left of the interior.

Everything there was in the boat. Beer bottles and cans, anti-freeze jug, a couple of small liquer bottles, lots of walnuts, a bunch of rotted wood, you name it.

I did find a fixed pedestal for the helm seat, and a taper lock base. Some other little stuff too.
At least the hull was in good shape. No dents or dings, and what not.
