I never thought of facebook. I bought the boat because I liked the 1958-1959 fat 50's. When I was in high school (1965-1969) we had a 1958 17 foot Glastron with a Johnson 50 hp v4. it was a gas hog. But it ran 27 mph with 1 person or 10 people in the boat.
Yes it is aluminum. I called Tennessee Wildlife and they said that it's been so long since it's been registered that it's fallen out of the system. The length is 15 foot.
Does anyone recognize the make and model of this boat? I believe it's a 1959. The motor on it is a 1959 Evinrude 50 hp v4. There was a metal plate laying in the bottom of the boat that says Hartley Chattanooga. As far as I can tell Hartley never manufactured boats, just sold plans. I can't find...
