Roger Clark CVX16 project
Posted: Mon Sep 04, 2017 10:10 pm
Hi all...
So I have been stalking the forum for a while but finally am registered!
I have purchased (stupidly) a roger Clark cvx16 and wondering if anyone could answer any questions? I theink se7en seemed to know his stuff for sure about them.
Firstly anyone any idea of previous owners/history on the off chance? She was called ruthless in red flake?
Anyway allegedly all she needed was carpet new seats and an outboard and she was good to go... no she needed a lot more... a floor a transom and a stringer...
First question this is my second roger Clark glastron (other was an ssv151) and my 3rd glastron (one was a full fat import) both my other two were the same boat (ssv151)both my previous two had original floors transoms etc and a key difference. In the rc the floor was chop strand covered in a resin paint, the transom was just the grey resin paint as well no real resin
Now I have my cvx it was exactly the same! Is that normal? My other ssv has a thick layer of resin on both the transom and the floor and was solid!
Next any ideas when rc produced them over here trying to ascertain the age.
Ok last question... would it be possible that from the factory the stringer designs from roger Clark would be different? I am trying to replace them but all of the us based guides show one stringer in the center we whereas mine has two off center.. any ideas?
Thanks for your help!
