For Sale- TOTAL PROJECT boat!
1977 Hammond Grenada Elite
Winterized and tore apart to redo transom and two main stringers in 2005 and has remained in my garage or tightly covered in back yard since. Interior has been in my lower level since. The coupler was toast possibly d/t engine misalignment as the stringers were toast.
I did laminate two ¾ inch pieces of “old style†(green treat) treated lumber that seasoned in my garage two years before cutting and laminating. That is not fiber glassed in as the transom interior needs grinding as part of the original filler came off with old transom and part stayed. The two main stringers are toast at least up to the fiberglass bow seating area. The outer small stringers are fine. Most the foam has been dislodged.
It had a loose steering arm on the original bell-housing so I purchased another bell-housing on eBay with tight steering and better exterior finish.
Engine was winterized and fogged with oil change in 2005 and has been in my heated garage since. Periodically I pulled the plugs and squirted oil in the cylinders but make no claims to its fitness. Tons more pics available.

Asking $500 or best offer which includes the newer steering tight bell housing. Obviously AS IS!
