Hi all,
I am currently in the process of rebuilding a 1961 Arkansas Traveler equipped with a 1964 Johnson 40 Hp outboard motor. I spent the winter working now and then on the motor and yesterday finally got it to the point to start it up. It started and seemed to run pretty good the short time i had it going. I think i have water pump problems, so i shut it down and am awaiting a new water pump to arrive.
I am stripping the boat and getting ready to seal the inside and do some fiberglass work. I am looking for a windshield, does anyone have any suggestions? Is it possible to make my own from plexiglass?
I hope to add some pictures soon showing our progress!
Here is the boat and motor when it was giving to us!
