Hi! I just picked up a 1956 Duratech S-13 myself this past weekend. My serial number, 17082, is just 106 boats past yours. It doesn't appear to ever have had a windshield or steering wheel. It was in use on Cayuga Lake in New York until about 3 years ago. So far all it appears to need is to replace the wood on the transom and maybe seal the leaks once I have a chance to float it and look. Can you share any information you have such as capacity and max hp? I have begun looking on Duratech's website as well.



Thanks,
Don
