I am trying to identify an aluminum Traveler I pulled out from a beaver lodge that appears to be in salvageable condition. It measures 13-7 x 48 beam. From brochures I found on line it appears to be '61 -'63 with the middle seat being a double lid storage compartment or live well. From the pictures attached can anyone tell me if the transom wood appears original and anything about the missing lids for the seat compartment? Also there are 4 eye brackets attached to the gunnels and painted the same as the boat interior. What were these for?
Moderators-please move this post if it is in the wrong place.
Thank you

Picture #1, the thing on the left or the thing on the right? The thing on the left is likely for attaching straps for a bimini cover, the thing on the right is a bracket to hold oars.
