34" Fireboat restoration

As promissed here are the first photos of my restoration project, as you can see there Is a fair bit of work needed, the hull Isn't showing any signs of leaks but I will be coating the outside In EZE KOTE and fine glass cloth before final painting, to ensure It Is watertight.
It had number 93 on It before I started stripping, the Inside Is coated In Polyester resin, I will probably change the cabin roofs as they are made of plasticard.
Thanks to dbninja I now have plans that will enable a good refit.
The motor and associated electrics that came with the boat (pictured), may have to be changed.
I hope to fit It out with 2.4 ghz rc gear as I have a couple of systems that I used for aircraft.

Fair winds and calm waters,
COLIN.
