finally got it home ,its 16 ft and the old man I got it from thinks its a monarch .the motor will be replaced with a hand tiller I guess the motor was under water for some time when I pulled the cover off all the wire were brittle and broke ,just to much work so its off,but for free I cant complain .My 12 year old is very excited (i wish I had his energy ) he wants it ready to squirrel hunt out of this fall and for trapping .HE HAS NO IDEA !

Here is what we have done so far ,trailer painted and installed new lights and back guides (just need carpet to finish) ,took the motor and console out and cleaned the inside.Going to check for leaks tomorrow. I was told the boat doesnt leak but we all know how that goes.
