    After years of searching, I have finally found the right 57' Constellation for me. Now I start the restoration.

    I'm starting with the topside fiberglass. Here's a picture. Anyone have any suggestions of how to bring this back to showroom quality? If there's a link to videos, that would be great.

    Thanks!

    Can't tell at all from that picture. Anything in daylight?

    This one may be a little better but that's all I have until I actually take possession of the boat. Just wondering if it looks like anything major or maybe just polishing it out.

    Yeah, sorry, can't really tell. Ask your surveyor for his/her opinion, they'll have the best and closest look at it.
