I just bough another tin boat, this one being a 18.5' Center console... with three aluminum boats does that make me a Tin Commodore? My new one is a bit of a puzzler though as it has no Coast Guard tag, and when I called the manufacturer they said the serial number is not in the proper format... so its going to take some digging to pinpoint the year. Suffice it to say its a early to mid 80's on a very nice 1986 Shore Landr trailer. The deck has one soft spot andthe transom is old, but nothing that can't wait till next winter. The only down side is the engine. Its a 1970 85hp Evinrude Electric shift. But I got the whole package for $1400 now to find a donor glasser and upgrade the powerplant!
