Yours looks pretty nice! Definitely a neat boat. As a post mentioned the metal on those older boats if often thick and heavy duty. You’ve got a good hull on your handsHow’s the trailer? Tires recent? Lights work? Have you had it in the water yet? Any leaks in hull? Nav lights? EtcPersonally… I’d have a hard time trusting that old motor… unless it’s been recently rebuilt or very very well maintained through the years. If you end up really liking the hull, I’d plan on putting more than you spent here into a late model low hours engine. Then it’d be set! (The engine is usually the majority of the cost on smaller aluminum boats)I don’t think Glock pride is necessary trying to rain on your parade. Nor am I… it’s just that some of us have already been through several cheap boats and we’re skeptical because we learned some hard lessons lol
