Guardian Hulls
Submitted by damon4949 on Sat, 2016-10-15 13:39
Hey guys I have found an 18.5 foot guardian that might be worth a rebuild, just chasing some info on the guardian hulls if anyone has any? They look a lot like the v19 shape from haines but not too sure on beam ect.
Cheers

Ive got a 5.7m, Ive put 1 crack in the top cabin from walking to anchor rope...touch wood the hull has been solid as phuk...ive hammered mine in some shitty condition fully loaded and it does a good job, agree above if rebuilding add some more weight in new internal timber.
