    Fishing license Question

    NC is tough on SC fisherman crossing over the border. They know right where the line is and often patrol those areas.

    If you were selling my boat, what would be your asking price

    Great looking boat. But without a gas outboard, you wont get $1000. $650- 750 range? Have found simular with outbaord but w/out paint for 800-1000.

    Wax for Tin Boats?

    I waxed mine with Turtle Wax. It was a pain and left chalky places. My boat is drab green. I didnt wax it for looks or ease of cleaning but in hopes of lessoning friction on the water.

As long as your flywheel has the starter teeth, you will need a bracket (off like motor up to late'70), a starter (dont remember years), a Ford style...
