I'm sure Pete and Bruce are right about damaged/sunken boats. I respect both their opinions with no qualifications. If we are just talking a restoration of an older, neglected boat, however, that's about as much fun as you can have standing up, in my opinion! Mine still is half shrimpboat, half yacht, but when I turn the key and those pickup truck engines that I installed pretty much on my own (and I'm no mechanic), immediately fire up, and I look back over the teak deck and covering boards I put in with my own hands, and all the other stuff I've done over the years, I really don't think I could have been as happy with an off-the-shelf boat.
