Thanks Woobs. The glass guys did a great job. Won't be in the water until 2014 though.

Rob~~~The newly restored hull & deck look fantastic !
What engine powerplant & outdrive combo are you going to use on your "Baby" ?

Was your long unfinished & un-rigged Baby 14 Cigarette mold boat ever registered & titled prior to you buying & restoring her ?

There is something about the lines of the 16, 18, 22 that when you restore them they simply look new. This baby looks new, but old, as it should. It's like a freshly restored classic Vette!
Great job. can't wait to see more.
Looks great. Hope to see you in Buffalo this week end.
your boat is really looking good. Love the white and red.
I have far too many boats, just ask my Wife.
If you have something of great quality, and you take care of it, it will last forever.

You have really preserved a piece of history there. Great to see and looking forward to seeing more!
