Friends,
Do any of you know who made the FOREMOST line of tin boats, that were evidently sold by JC PENNY stores.
The serial number on the little Vee-bottom is 23008 & the TX Parks & Wildlife Department has it registered as a 1972 model.
(Truthfully, the records of TP&WD are VERY POOR for that era, so it may NOT be a 1972.)
According to the original owner's son, the boat was always on their private lake, has never been used with an OB motor, was never titled & hasn't been "wet" since his father died in 1978.
(That's all that he knows about the boat.)
For one thing, I'd like to know the recommended HP for the tin boat, as I plan to fish for crappie on the smaller TX lakes from it.
yours, satx
