1962 Chris Craft Connies

Looking for any books, manuels etc., on the repair and restoration of these beauties. Most "repair" or "build" are on bent frames or much smaller boats. These were production craft and surely someone has written something on them. Any help out there? Thank you.

Found this traditional boatbuilding site from Hanko, Finland with some sweet pictures while surfing. They feature traditional lapstrake and carvelplanked fishing and rowing boats. You will be able to hear my oohs and awes in the background. My garage should be so nice. Here is the translated version: Enjoy...

A very interesting article about Classic Glass:

As seen in "Classic Boating" (July/August 1997)

Classic Wooden Boats

 I have invited the members of another defunct MSN Group "ClassicWoodenBoats". Give them a warm welcome if the show up.

 

By show of hands, who likes classic wooden boats?

 

Was thinking we should start a page and photo album for the Classic Glass Boats as well. What do yous think?
