Title: How old is too old?
Post by: FordLover on July 23, 2009, 09:31:08 AM

So I am interested in this boat.

Been getting info from the owner the past couple days and found out this morning it is a 1964.  I was hoping for a little newer than that, 70's perhaps.  Is there ever a moment when you say "MAN, that is just too old"?  Perhaps not.  Maybe I am just being dumb. :screwy:

But I admit, from what I see it is VERY clean! >:D

Fwiw, I've heard that fiberglass continues to to cure forever. So at some point they do get brittle.

Push button starting AND a color coordinated tow bar.     Fock that's a cool boat.    Looks pretty nice from here.

HA HA HA! :D
Is that was that button is?  My buddy and I stared at that picture for twenty minutes discussing what that could be.  It was like two drunk monkey's trying to figure out a calculus equation.

Painted green around it, I'd go with starter button, myself.

'sides, who else would need a Moo horn button on their boat?
