Well he postponed until tomorrow. But I just noticed the yellow boat in the background, looks to be another tinny... my interest is peaked. Waterman you're no help man, haha.

The yellow boat looks to be a Feathercraft, they have a very distinctive bow handle.

Editc. Yep, its an FC

A Hawk or a Clipper based on the cowl/fin along the rear gunwale. 14-16ft, late 50s, maybe as late as 1960/1.

See if he'll send you some more pix of it. Its been painted yellow. Its was blue or gold anodized originally. Great eye spotting it, I missed it completely....

What's the tinny behind the FC?

We need CSI on the scene and 360 surveillance shots! LOL

Interesting hull treatment with the engine turned look.

He wants too much for it, though.

Super cool, I was in love until I saw that classic tin had a Nissan motor on it, kinda ruined it for me. Like putting a Toyota motor in a 57 Chevy.

That helm arrangement might work well for the hoist mooring it is in but I would not want to come up to a dock single handed on a windy day and have to scramble between helm and controls and the mooring lines. Very pretty boat though.

It looks like that front windscreen doubles as a hatch.

Yes those were pretty cool old boats, quite a few here in Winnipeg they were built here for quite a few years until the owner died and the factory was closed. http://www.aroline.com/
