I just bought one 14x5 with the nicest Carolina flare I've seen in a while. Needs total restoration. Going to bulks a flats boat for my son. Just looking for a little history if anyone knows.

We actually have one. It was made in Camilla, Georgia. They went out of business I believe in the early 1970's.

Re: Island Maid Boats

I found some info that may be of interest. Your boat may have been made by Thunderhawk Boats in Nashville. The "Island Maid" may just have been a re-badging by a boat distributor in Camilla.
Don't know if this is true.

Look on the transom for the HIN. If it begins with THB it was built by Thunder Hawk.
