Can anyone help me identify this boat

I think it's an alumicraft from the 50s. I stripped and cleaned the whole boat there are no markings

Installed the rail. I'm very happy with it. I think it came out good. Plus it added another 3 inches to the width and 9 inches overall height. I think it will be the perfect height to keep the kids from falling overboard. I can't wait until this thing is done

I put a layer of "coat it" on the bottom. I'll let you know how it works

Installed the floor. Made a bench seat next to me for the kids, and carpeted/installed the rails on the trailer.

I will likely be doing this same work to my boat. Great job man!

Thank you. What year and model is your boat?

Looks like a great job so far.

I'm curious about the rails, especially when at the dock and trying to get over them. Perhaps they just look taller than they really are.

Nice! Pods?

I don't think I will need pods, but I can always add them I have plenty of aluminum sheet metal laying around I could weld up if necessary
