Plans will be to convert to an outboard, but I will probably not dig / cut into this one until next year. The Bertram 20 still needs some finishing up, but I will have her on the water next weekend.
Here are a few shots of the Hunt 14:
Putting some weight on the transom to see where she will sit with an outboard on the transom.
very exciting for you Ian. they are so hard to find that I may need to splash yours!
I have found a 16' Hunt designed Grampian , but it does not have the same bow flair and the dead rise at the transom is shallower, I bought it without seeing it in person, so we'll see if I choose to put the resources in to restoring it. I am still on the "hunt" for an Oday 14' or 16' in any condition.
Ian, if you are looking for someone to regularly exercise your beautiful 20 while you are making this beauty perfect, just leave the keys in it and a full load of fuel!
