Anyone got any pics of "B" runabouts from the late 50s to late 60s?

Particularly the small flat bottom / cracker box boat type hulls?

I saw a cool one made of plywood on e-bay the other day and wondered what other hulls may be out there. My older brother had one and I am trying to get pics of his old boat to post.:cool:

my new DMH is coming REAL SOON, so could use the spare $$$ to put into the new boat.............

I can also sell a KG4H with this boat, less gearcase. The motor is ALL NEW inside and is ready for paint on the gas tank and rewind assy. Also have the lower cowl, that is also ready for paint. I would sell the motor for $800 alone, if it is bought in conjunction with this boat, package deal for $3000.........boat alone $2500, completely rigged, ready for motor.......

That would be a geat Deal. Daren takes very good care of his equipment. I picked up his latest hydro that is in terrific shape.

Daren, I thought you would have a nice looking boat like this hanging from the ceiling of your living room? :D

Mercguy,

....well if you have enough money, anything is possible :eek:

That is a nice boat that your buddy has, but you have a better looking (stylewise) hull. I am just looking for a recereational (retired) race boat for my teenage son to get him interested.

Thanks,
BajaRick
