I have found a Manufacturer! Springbok ! Now I need to narrow done the model.

They said it looks like a Arkansas Traveler...however that was also a dead end. Everyone has been great on helping me out. Just want to say that. I never got a response from contacting the owners of boats like mine selling on the web abroad. So the search continues. 8)

Part of the reason why we all pick up these old boats is to find some history , nostalgia etc. Isn't it ? That's why I do anyway. Or else just go get a "cookie cutter " modern boat. I do need paper work if I want a jet outboard ( which I do ) so that's why.

Hmmmm.... I searched thru as many Sears catalogs I could find and still no match for this Hull. I apologize if this is annoying.....but back to the top. :oops:

It's all good. Iam in BC Canada. I have checked all regs. If I keep the engine choice to a 9.9 max HP then I don't need any documents. However. I would Mike to run a 25/20 jet setup on it in the future so a ID would help with Registeration. Even though I don't really need, just makes it...

Must be a rare(ish) tinny ! I will start the build sans ID I guess. I keep y'all posted.

Any leads ?

This one has people stumped on a few forums. I have even have been looking through old catalogues.

Will do ! Thanks.

It has been difficult tracking down information about this boat. I think the detail at the stern will be the key to id this boat. I have looked at 100s of photos trying to find a match. Looks like it did have a windscreen at some point.

I picked this boat up a few months ago. Nice lines and deep sides. 60" at widest & 48" at the beam. 20" sides. It is 14' in length and has no identification marks. Paint has a crinkle texture. I want to start a restoration which will include a plank floor and some new paint and wood...

Ok. I have some options,thanks So I could take the circuit board from under the plastic TM housing and then re mount it in another smaller plastic box , such as a ammo box, then attach a new knob to control the circuit board ? Is this making sense? Or I could get the unit from China....which...

Has any one made or know where to purchase a variable speed control switch for a Minn Kotta Endurance motor? I would like to have control of the speed setting from a remote switch not located on the tiller handle. Does this exist? Thanks !

Hello everyone :LOL2: The floor is covered. Temporary oar sockets installed until I find some nicer ones. I have to find a quick release swivel seat mount so I can get it finished up. Minn Kota trolling motor and steering cable brackets almost done. The floor is probably just...

Finished up the paint today. Just some touch ups and paint some of the hardware afterwards. Transom pieces and floor section cut tonight. Just need to cut some floor supports for more rigid mounting. It has so many dents. The colour is much better in daylight, my garage has poor lighting.
