1970 Classic 32' Forest Johnson PROWLER Fiberglass S/f.
I have been in the process of restoring this S/F for three years but poor health prevents me from finishing the project.
I will donate this boat to any worthwile organization willing to complete the restoration. This is a truly classic boat and deserves a new life. This is hull # 2 of the fiberglass series, built for the family which own's Don Rico Rum.
Completed projects include:
Engines- 255HP Mercruisers FWC 100 hours on engines.
New fuel tank 175 gal.
12,000 btu A/C
Electric head
Hull stripped, repainted with polyeurathane.
New cockpit sole
Schaffer 23' riggers in Lee S.S. bases
Much more.
The boat sustained damage in hurricane Wilma when the sailboat in the adjoining slip broke free. The hull is sound but the cockpit gunnel was damaged and about 2' needs to be reglassed. The outriggers were bent and twisted but all but the top 1/3 can be salvaged and the rear bulkhead of the cabin needs to be refastened.
Other than the list above, most of the remaining work is refinishing. I have run the boat during the restoration including several trips to Bimini. The boat is in Miami and any interested parties can contact me at:
