Does anyone have any experience with these boats? There is one for sale near me that is in pretty bad shape. Rotten wood, bad paint, no interior or floor. It has a 35hp Johnson outboard that looks to be the same age as the boat, or in close proximity. It has the steering wheel and mechanics, but is not attatched to the motor. I could use the motor for a '57 Cutter project, other than that it looks like firewood. Or is it? The asking price is $950.

Sounds like a neat boat. Some pictures would be nice. I don't think there's really too many people searching for fiberglass boats to restore so there's really little to no value there. He'd be lucky to get $200.

I took a few pics on my phone, trying to get them on the computer. It's actually a wooden boat. I'm sorry I didn't specify that. The motor has a mod# RDE 19 and serial 1522799.
