Here's mine sitting in the driveway when I got back from Afghanistan a few years ago. Wife bought it for me as a suprise. And let me tell you, I sure was. Both the boat and the wife are running strong, and I still enjoy both as well.
1542 Tracker LW, Trailstar trailer, and 15hp Johnson pull start - fantastic combo.

This is my first tin. 1968 Buddy boat. It was passed down from my father-in-laws dad (wife's grand-dad), to her uncle, to me. I had stripped down the old paint on the boat and trailer, put a floor in it and a nice Johnny 9.9. In that bottom picture, my dads fishing vest is hanging off the front seat.

Wife's grand-dad is in the nursing home with Alzheimer's and Dad has passed. Of course now I am regretting getting rid of her.

She's for sale and will post in classified section once I reach 25 posts.

This is my 1976 Starcraft Mariner 16 foot that I bought in 1979. I replaced the 35 Evinrude with a 30 Johnson in 1991. In 2015 it developed a stress crack so I have replaced this boat

I have the same engine, well almost. Mine is a 1989 48 Johnson. I haven't had it in the water yet. Any engine tips, good or bad, that I should address you can share?

This is mine (now). 14' 1959 Crestliner Vee.

That is just TOO cool!!!

Mine is just a 10' topper, I received it with not a screw on it that the maker didn't put on her. Well it's almost ready for her water trial (post fixxin' up) and I'll take pix then.

 

[gnappi]

As promised.
