Forgot to take pictures along the way























  I was intending on documenting my progress but I progressed much faster than I thought I would and forgot to take pictures, all in all this was much easier than I thought it would be and I am happy with the results, I now have a floor you could park a truck on, I know my floatation foam is dry and doing what it is supposed to. by far the hardest part was the cushions and getting the interior covering on the hard top to fit properly. I am hoping to repower next season to a 70hp four stroke, if we decide to keep the boat.

KMV HT 17 restore

  Hi I am new to the blog thing, I have had a few other boat projects and have not kept track of my progress, I picked this one up from bellville ontario, it has been sitting in the weather for a few years and is need of some major work. The KMV is a norwiegan design dory type hull, they were also produced in Newfoundland Ontario and later in Owen Sound Ontario, as far as I know they are not being produced anymore. The boat will require a new center floor section, updated interior, major polishing and will be fitted for down rigging lake huron, I will try to update whenever I have time to work on it, hopefully will be water ready in two months time.

Thannks for looking comments welcome.
