Just a note of interest about the cost of restoration. See the text on "WANTING TO BUY A P.T. BOAT ?" on this site, its about restoration cost back in 1985 with 1985 dollars.

| Rob McCarthy had started a new build of a 103-series boat (Elco 80'), but had given up on it over a year ago. He had the keel and framing started, unbelievable showing for a man effort. On the west coast. Was looking for anyone to take over the project. He used to have a website with all his progress photos, but I don't think it's maintained anymore, and I don't know his email. He used to monitor this board, at least up to a year ago. |

I had tried to contact Rob a few months ago using that E mail address and it came back as undeliverable. I have no clue if he dropped the project, sold it, or still has whatever he built. He was going to send me photo's but never did.........

Frank, I think I still have photos of Rob's build. I'll look tonight when I get home and if I do, I'll send them to you. He had most of the framing complete when he gave up on the project.
