    Photos Please! Having Chrysler Outboard Transom Bolt Pattern Concerns

    One of these days I will find me an old runabout for my 70 or 75 Chrysler. I'm not sure if it will be aluminum or fiberglass, but it will be something out of the late 60's or early/mid 70's. What I'm not excited about is the fact that it will likely have holes left from what will probably be...

    Fiberglass 1982 Randall Craft Rebuild and Structural Changes

    Back in January of this year, I bought this little 14' fiberglass boat on-line from a seller in Panama City.
