Kennebec 18'

[instructor74]

After several years in storage at the in-laws, going back to school, building a house the old girl is back home.
Pulled off the old canvas and found the boat to be in relatively good shape
I did find one broken plank some cracking in a few of the planks

Found this gem of a repair to the front of the boat some there is a little repair work to be done

Did a little more work today trying to get a better idea of the over all condition of the boat. Did a little test area strip and the Cedar is beautiful I was almost expecting to see a 2 tone between the ribs and the planks. I was able to work the master mount out from under the seat and noticed the 2 blocks on either side of the seat anyone have an idea what they might be? They do not support the seat and they are not the same from one side to the other I also pulled one of the seat mounting bolts any have a few to sell or have an idea where I could fingers them? and found this old tag under layers of sticker boat license
