Default Arkansas Traveler

I haven't heard much about an arkansas traveler, but I have one that still works great. Anyone else?

I just bought a 1964 Traveler Atlas, 16' with a 40hp Johnson made in '65. It's a bit rough, but it runs without leaks. I got two quotes today from yards to paint the hull for me, one was $1128 and the other wa $740, both using the same paint.

The windshield needs replacing, BAD, but I haven't been able to track anyone down with one for sale. You guys think a glass company could make a windshield for it?

I have what I believe to be a 66 or 67 Arkansas Traveler with an 80HP Johnson outboard. It is the Skijack? model. It needs a lot of work, but I think the look of the 60's boats is very cool.
