In need of some help

[River Dreams]

I just bought this boat and I am in need of some help identifying it. I think it is either an Arkansas Traveler or a Feather Craft. It is a 12' aluminum dual cockpit rear steer. It does not have any plates on it so I am at a loss.

A better pix of the handle on the bow might help, FeatherCrafts have a distinctive bow handle.

I don't think I've ever seen a FeatherCraft w/ chines 'molded' into the bottom of the hull:

But here are 2 places to look thru a few examples of FeatherCraft:
FC's catalog page

FGs library

And 1 for Arkansas Traveler

A quick scan didn't yield any 12ft +/- of either that looked like your's..

Great possibilities ya got there.

As soon as i can get to the boat Ill get some better pics of distinctive features. It is at a friends. Meanwhile I have been directed to a person at Game and Fish that deals with these type of issues so maybe I will get more info from them.

That's a neat vintage aluminum hull!

We can help you fix it up and help you spend your money too.

It's gonna take some man hours and $$$ to fix her up and make her seaworthy, but she should turn some heads out there on the lake or river.
