Re: Tell us how old is your boat?

My oldest is a 1953 Herter's 16' Fiberglass with a 1958 Evinrude Fastwin 18HP. I have only seen one of these boats and it is the one I own. I have not found any information on the internet or pictures of this same type boat anywhere else. I had to take it to the TPWD and get numbers assigned for the title. The game warden had never heard of one either. It is a sweet old boat and handles very well. It is raw fiberglass ( never been painted ) and it's a little strange seeing the waterline through the boat or watching the bottom light up at night when fishing over lights.

I'm afraid I have you all beat. My current boat is a 1942 Welin with a Kermath 8 hp 2 cyl. inboard. These pics are from a couple of weeks ago. She is coming along nicely now. She should be water ready in two more paydays.

I am quite jealous! How cool!
