[QUOTE="korchar, post: 498882, member: 33434"] Recently acquired this old aluminum boat and I am in the process of gutting and refurbishing it. It's a 15' 1962 Princecraft Speed King. I haven't been able to find any documentation or information on this boat and I am pretty sure I've thoroughly scoured all the websites and forums I can. Any chance someone here has information of this? My plan is to use this as our family backcountry camping and fishing boat. I am planning on finishing with as much wood as possible, without adding too much weight. I am in the process of replacing the plywood transom and I am also adding a 2nd outer transom to sandwich the aluminum between (which is pitted because of the old pressure treated transom board and full of holes from a number of modifications over the years). I am also planning on making a decorative wood bow plate and refitting with wooden bench seats. [/QUOTE]
