Re: 1959 Dorsett Catalina

Yes I was born and raised in California so know the I-80 corridor very well. Also spent 8 years driving truck over the road. If for some reason I did get that one from California, I certainly would go the southern route. If I had got the one yesterday, I had made arrangements with a neighbor to go get it.

Yes I have seen the one in Meridian,ID. It could be doable if I had the truck.

Sucks about that boat. They are nice retro boats, and they actually made quite a few so they are not too hard to locate.. Not only is it just cut, it was done with an angle grinder.. IF, I were to do it that way ( and I wouldn't mind you ). I would cut the fiberglass with an oscillating saw as they can remove a blades width with practically surgical precision

Not a Dorsett, but looks pretty similar and looks to be mostly all there.

Re: 1959 Dorsett Catalina

Thanks Mark, Yes it does look similar to the Catalina. Nice Starflite OB on it as well. Too bad about the titles though. I don't have a flatbed to go get it with or be able to afford the usual rates to hire someone. Nice find though!
