Beautiful boat. That is my DREAM BOAT

I completely understand that. Make sure you seal the edges good. The water runs down the rub rail drips right down on it. Also check the brass scuppers in the motor well and make sure they are in good shape with no cracks that allow water in.

If I was you I would seriously look at replacing that transom cap. I have an Islander that the cap was like yours. I sealed it every year to ensure no water got it. Went to fix the cap when they removed the engines the fiberglass had completely delaminated. The transom was wet as could be. I...

BEAUTIFUL boat your going to love it. Good luck I’m jealous.

Young’s Fiberglass is in Marmora NJ. It is just outside of Ocean City. I had some additional work done around the transom and with everything is was around 6K plus tax. They had to cut holes on the top to remove the tie downs on the transom so I had all that fixed and glassed over back to...

If your going to keep the boat it is a good investment. It is not cheap over 6K when said and done. I did have the shop do a lot of extras to ensure no water gets in. Those little things add up quick. I had Young’s fiberglass do the work and I could not be more pleased. They put it back together...

We replaced everything. The original was green board and that is what I replaced it with. The boat will be ready to be picked it up Monday afternoon. They were hanging the engines today. The rigging tubs also had water in them so we cut drain holes in them and I’m running all new fuel lines they...

Your going to love the boat. I have the 268 and it is a great boat. The are heavy to tow I pull my boat with an F150 and you can tell she is back there. They are some big engines for that boat it should run great. Good luck you’ll love it.

Yes I will let you know as soon as I get the bill. It should be ready next week. We are waiting for the brass tubes and finishing the cut outs on the top deck.

Transom almost done looks great. You can see from the first picture how wet everything was. Everything was replaced and glassed completely closed with NO transom cap. The drain holes with the brass tubes were class so they are water tight and new brass tubing on order. The swim ladder was...

I was going to use coda board but the shop doing it recommended I use the same material Grady did. I did not have any rot at all it was all delaminated from getting wet. Now shopping for new motors. Hopefully they the marina will have them shortly. I have a set of Yamaha 150 saltwater series...

I will do that. I am trying to load some pictures but it’s telling me the file is too large. I may have to get my daughter to do it. I stoped there today to look at it and they are making good head way. They are also doing some additional fiberglass work on some hatches and the transom door.

i was looking at new motors that what started this. Now there is more where the motors mount on the inside has a plactic cover that Grady puts on there. That all needs to be cut off and fixed. To reinstall the tie downs on the transom two holes have to be cut in the floor near the door on one...

I did not have much rot at all but while is apart replacing everything. I am NOT replacing the transom cap to prevent any water intrusion. The top will completely glassed closed and also going to glass and finish the motor well drains. The shop is also repairing a couple of lids for the fish...

I took my 1998 268 islander in to have the transom cap replace two weeks ago. Pulled both motors off and much to my surprise the transom had a little moisture but it was totally delaminates and separated from the wood. I’ve own the boat since 2010 and sealed the transom cap every season. Now...

I have a 1998 Islander 268. I am getting ready to have the aluminum piece taken off and glassed over. I am having both engines taken off the aluminum piece remove off the top and the plastic removed from the front then glassed completely over.

I have a 268 islander. I put the lee wish bone outriggers with the 19.5 foot heavy duty poles. They are perfect for the boat. It is a little tight getting around them but worth it. I angled them so they do not hang past the back of the outboards. I set it up so the pulley attaches to the cabin...

Nice boat looks very clean. Good luck with her that is my dream boat.

The outriggers are on and look perfect on the boat. The Lee Jr’s look gook with 19 foot heavy duty poles. The heavy duty poles allow me to drag two lines on both poles with no flex. Angled the pole so the tips are inline with the back out the outboards.
