The Boss

[Greg]

I see "The Boss" is for sale again and it looks like the motor comes with the boat this time. Not real sure about the built in 1950 claim.

Greg,
I dont know whether its the same guy that had it last time though?
Is it not a plastic bottom timber deck boat?
Not sure of the history either.
Bigger minds than mine may have heard of it in racing circles
I cant remember it.(that dont mean much)
Not 1950's for me. more like 70's

I thought this was a timber hull. I have another pic of the inside of the hull and it while it looks like a timber hull, it is not good enough top be conclusive. The planks seen to extend past the transom.
I agree about the date being more 70's. Definitely not early 50's.
