Mine's a II also. When I first got it, it had a '57 Johnson Golden Javelin on it. In 1977 I replaced the Javelin with a new Evinrude. Man, I wish I had that Javelin back.<br /><br />About a month ago, I got a '56 30hp Javelin that I'm preping to put on the boat in the spring. Mechanically it's pretty good, but it needs a paint job. I'm currently resealing the lower unit and new w/pump. Good spark. Carb needs rebuilt.<br /><br />I knew you had one. I've seen your occasional post on www.feathercraft.net.

I've got a 1949 Deluxe Runabout. It's in very sad shape. I honestly don't know what I'll ever do with it, but I just love it. Most people would say recycle it I'm sure.<br />I would sure love to find a Vagabond like you guys have.

Bought it from a guy in town.. Thought it would be a neat project... Are these things worth dumping some money in? Love to get it to looking like the first pictures..
