Hello ,
I recently purchased a 1966 Century Venturer. It is 27 " long by 10" wide and has a batten seamed mahogany planked hull. As far as I know it came from the factory with little or no seam filler. It has been out of the fresh water for 3 years and I plan on putting it into salt water next summer. Someone please help me ....what is the product to use. I have heard of old oilbased paint skins blended with varnish and linseed oil will do . Does anyone have a recipe or formula for that . Or can you still get cole hard ???? thanks everyone .......Sean

Before doing anything to your boat get and read "How To Restore Your Wooden Runabout" by Don Danenberg. I've recommended this book several times before on the WBF and believe this will soon become the bible for runabout owners and restorers. This is a no nonsence book written by someone who has restored/repaired hundreds of these boats.
