Wow! I think you hit the nail right on the head![url=https://www.tinboats.net/forum/viewtopic.php?p=342949#p342949 said:ccm » 26 Feb 2014, 18:44[/url]"]I've seen one like that somewhere before. I think It was an Arkansas Traveler Explorer model if I remember right. Try Fiberglassics they have a library full of ads and brochures from older boat companies. Very cool boat by the way!

If I can get it titled that would be nice. All I got was a signed bill of sale.
I knew this boat was old when I found it on Craigslist. I bought it to restore, it needs some work. I have never restored any boat. If I cannot get a title I will fix it any how. Hopefully the state of Fla. will work with me on this.

From the factory advertisement, I think the boat is a 1960 model. I was able to get a title already. They also issued me a Hull #. Now I can start with repairs and refinishing. I plan to use it for joy rides, up and down the Silver River near where I live. Life will be much easier on this ol'tin boat know.
Not really sure what color, I will paint it though.
I will power it with a new four stroke engine, maybe a Yamaha or Suzuki 6HP.
This boat is 11' 5" from bow to stern.
