Circa 1980 Fibreglass Runabout with Roller Trailer - Project Vessel
This 5.8-metre fibreglass runabout presents as a restoration project requiring comprehensive remedial work. The vessel exhibits multiple structural and cosmetic concerns that require immediate attention from a qualified marine surveyor and experienced restorer.
Hull and Construction
Fibreglass V-hull construction, 5.8m overall length, 2.2m beam. White gelcoat with visible crazing, oxidation, and waterline staining throughout. Minor impact damage noted on port bow. Suspected soft spot on starboard transom requires urgent assessment and potential structural repair. Hull integrity compromised in multiple areas.
Cabin and Interior
Cabin structure shows significant mould growth on interior walls and ceiling. Paint peeling from cabin roof. Upholstery deteriorated and stained. Electrical systems corroded and non-functional. Bilge contains standing water with debris accumulation. Ventilation inadequate, contributing to moisture and mould proliferation. Interior requires complete remediation and refurbishment.

Trailer requires sandblasting, repainting, and component replacement before roadworthy certification.
