Here is my new-to-me 1987 Sylvan.

Just landed here a week ago. It needs lots of work, primarily a new sole and new upholstery, but seems to be in good shape mechanically. I intend to run it (with a patch on the rotten floor) for one season to see what I want to change and then do a refit next winter.

Maybe not the most 'practical', but a lot of fun. Jersey speed skiff, 16', 350 CID, hull layed up in 1969, raced during the 1970 season (1970 National Champion). Just a 'river boat' now.

Re: Show Us Your Old Boat!

Welp,
here's my old boat! And my first boat!
It's a 1971 Reinell with a 85hp Mercury.
It's be a year long project. New floor, transom, paint, and soon to be new interior!
Oh, and don't mind the date, had to change batteries in the camera! Pic was taken last week!

Re: Show Us Your Old Boat!

Ok I guess i will bring this thread back to life with pics of my old clunker. 1976 Checkmate V-Mate 1 with a 75HP Stinger. It is new to me but an old boat. Just hope it is worth the time and money its taking to get it going again because I really like it.

Cleaning it up

Re: Show Us Your Old Boat!

My ol' girl --- she's almost as old as I am.. LOL --- rescued from 15 years of sitting in someones yard uncovered and unloved. She was pretty ugly when I found her, but, other than a little outdrive shifting problem (needs a new lower cable... my next project) she's running pretty good now for having 3200 hours on the engine (according to the hour meter that was in there)

Luckily, my wife has allowed me to invest a few dollars in my $50 dollar purchase.
