Bought my 2nd Slickcraft with the intent to completely restore it. I had a 1973 235 that I restored and then later sold. The 235 is a bit too big for me to trailer as often as I plan to trailer this 215. This boat needs a major amount of work. The outdrive and engine are complete, condition unknown though. It has a 165 hp Mercrusier with a Chevy inline 6. It's about as rough as it can get, but I think I can bring it back to life. I love the classic lines of this boat.

Here’s some of the first boat, the 235 after it was done:

Rather dark even after I planed, sanded and oiled.
