What is it? Can you identify it?

Picked up this boat in the spring and have no idea what it is.
Only know it is 14' long (approx) and the merc on the back is a 1966. I have no reason to doubt the boat is also vintage 1966. There are no placards or markings of any sort.
I could only guess it may be a "Tracer", which may be a Chrysler model.
Any clues would be appreciated.
Thanks
AK

I am probably wrong but it sure looks like a Sangstercraft.They were built in the Vancouver area of B.C. from the early 60s to 1982. I had a 1973 16 footer,very well built boat.

I had a '68 Crestliner that looked similiar. Check the HIN just starbord of the engine on the top of the transom. The beginning letters will help the identification.

Thanks for the suggestions - still looking into it but at least my search has narrowed a bit.
I wish I could find the HIN number - I think a previous owner removed it.
I am also going to try to track down the previous registration to see if it is still "on the books" and maybe it will identify it for me.

Cheers

It looks kind of like a Crosby a little. The lines are close on it.
