Too much wood rot to keep. Everything else is great. What do you need?

I know. I know. I agree.
Yes, I read every thread. I spoke with professionals and took it to two different restorers. They all said I should cut my losses.
However, if you think I can sell it and some one else restore it, now is the time.

Since you read all the threads, have you considered doing a stringer job yourself? It just takes time!!

Of course. I considered it most thoroughly and decided it was beyond me. I have removed everything: engine, floor, exhaust, everything.
In the end, I can't do it.
We purchased a 1985 Mastercraft Stars and Stripes (the ONLY boat I would consider other than a Nautique).
Now I need to get rid of the 1979 SN. I would love to give a fantastic deal to someone willing to string it and go. If no one's willing, then parting it out to help others works for me.
How about I try to sell it first?

Oh I forgot... regarding vent windows I could use the adjuster brackets, complete if Monk hasn't spoken for them.

Here's the prop.
I believe it's the original. Regular use.

This is the cast iron plate covering the horns and the air intake on the bow. I think it's gorgeous; I like it better to the wood ones. My wife painted the black into it to make it pop about five years ago.
