1966 17' Glasspar and 1965 60hp johnson

[EmilioG]

Hello there!

I just got my hands on this 17' Glasspar from 1966 and this super seahorse 60 electric 1965(i think) and I'm debating weather I should try to restore them or just trash the boat and part out the motor..

the boat needs the transom replaced and the motor well all I know about the motor is that the compressions are ok.

would it be worth doing this job? or would I be better off getting something else?
are these motors reliable? how are they on gas?
I'm looking for a near shore fishing boat so I thought I could get this guys working..

replacing the transom shouldn't be too hard, I just don't know about how much it'll cost me..

and about the motor i don't know how much it will be ether.. im very handy and can do the work i think...


what do you guys think? any thoughts would be appreciated

thanks
