I recently picked up a Glastron Alpha which will need a large amount
of work to make it usable. I plan on making it yet another one of my
"projects". There is a large amount of gel coat cracking, 3 patches
that either Daryl or his other brother daryl attempted to do, and is
in need of a new sail.

Right now am unsure if it is even worthwhile to refurbish but am in
the research stage. So far I have not been able to locate any
information about the internal structure of the boat such as whether
or not there is any wood underneath the glass anywhere, how the boat
is constructed, ect. Assuming I go forward with this little project I
will need to locate some parts such as the edge rail, perhaps
replacement rudder and center board and the like.

As I said I am just doing some research right now but any info you
might know would be appreciated.


Thanks

Tom

I just bought the same hull for my own son. Did you have any luck finding specs or parts?
