    Are there any people that have info on how to measure the plane so i can figure what size motor to put on my boat? Maybe a formula to fugure out how much paint i will need to paint it? I just got this boat for free and its hull is solid as well as its stern. Its mostly cosmetic work and then the motor. From what I've researched it is a late sixty's Aristocraft Funliner-I think! Its approx length is 17 ft or so. It had a 40 hp Evinrude but its seized pretty good and nobody in my area will even look at it! I think i can use a smaller hp in a newer motor but not sure. I would greatly appreciate ANY info someone might have. PLEASE HELP ME!! Thanks!!

    I believe that Aristocraft has been reopened in the Atlanta area. Look for the member name PAR and he maybe able to give you some info.
