Hello all !
I have spent many hours trying to find out the manufacturer of my old Sears 11' 6" X 48" semi-V .(1956)
I run a Merc 9.9 on her and she really moves .
I love the cast aluminum Art Deco details and the hull lines .
Here are some pics.
Thanks for any and all info you may have .

Yeah man , thanks .

It may be an unpopular opinion , but I am leaving the patina as it is .
Back in '04 , Hurricane Charlie blew a tree down across her belly and dented her up pretty good .
Her dents were beaten out as best as could be by amateurs and she doesn't leak a drop .
So she's got some wrinkles and her hide is weathered and grey , but she is loved and has history .
 
Finally found out the boat is a Sea Nymph R-12-A .
I wanted to strengthen and repair the transom and also raise it about 1-1/2" so after some fabrication ...

I am using a new Merc 9.9 4 stroke on her and the 15" transom was too low .
Now it's just about right .

She's ready to go !
