1928 Joy Boy Photos

[chris pearson]

Did a "get it in the water repair" to see how the Kennebec Joy Boy performed. Put mylar under the canvas and glassed the holes closed. Sanded the flacking paint off of the canvas and "lobbed" on rustoleum and some varnish on the gunwales and transom to waterproof them. Put my 1927 ELTO Ruddertwin on it and off I went, awesome ride! Full restoration to follow....someday!
