Dad has this old boat. I'm not sure how old it is or if its even worth any love or effort. Can someone tell me what year & model this is? Its bare and needs a lot. Should I just trash it? Thank you.IMG_6439.jpeg

If it has sentimental value then of course yes or if you just like the boat.
Any boat is a lot of work bringing them back but the accomplishment that you feel is priceless should you do it.
There is a wealth of knowledge here.
I would suggest posting this in the restoration forum to get more input should you decide to take on this as a project.

That would have been a early 70s Bass Boat. If the Floor and Transom are still solid, you could get some use out of it, with a relatively small amount of money, but boats like this usually end up being Money Pits
