This may have been posted here before, but I haven't seen it. What this guy did with a classic 13 is the most over-the-top, yet totally cool rebuild I have ever seen. No expense was spared on this transformation, and the result is remarkable:

I usually don't like custom modifications to classic Whalers, but that one is pretty cool...perhaps because they did such a nice job.

Yes, that was a beautiful project, but could have saved a Bunch of weight utilizing dense board instead of plywood.
Really like the way he did the console.

Great looking job. Only thing is most boat builders don't use plywood anymore as a core material for decks, as eventually rot sets in. I would have used a dense core foam material such as Divinnycil. A lot of money, time and craftsmanship went into this build, I think it would be better suited in a 16/17 foot Whaler/
