Hey Relic:
Nice looking boat

I'm surprised that no one has answered you sooner.

I did a simple search (using the SEARCH MODE in the menu bar at the top of the page) and typed in "Hull Identification".
There was a post by Terry King... http://boatdesign.net/forums/showthr...identification regarding boat identification.

I did the homework for you and your boat is.....
after these messages !

Now really, it's made by Aluminum Goods in Princeville QC

Relic...

I'm sorry.... I input the wrong URL. Actually, that URL takes you to the THREAD that Terry posted in.
The correct url to get your own info is...http://www.uscgboating.org/recalls/mic_database.htm

If you type (in the MIC field) the first three letters of your boats HIN it will bring up the boat manufactures info.

By the way, you said that you've made a "project" out of this boat...
What kind of project ?
Looks pretty good from here. What are you going to do to it ?

Got any pic's of the interior ?

Progress..

i will post a picture of it original, upon purchase..
and striped it down to bare aluminum, primed , painted.
replaced all wood, all new vinyl, carpet, etc..

the boat is currently at the shop getting a new layout of
bucket seats, a new bench at the back and the bowseats all custom done... replaced the original 70 horse johnson with a
90h evinrude v4, and then stuck in a new depth/temp/speed unit and a cd system..
will post a few pics shortly..
thanks for the interest.. fun to share..
