    Alumacraft Year and Specifications

    Save the wood to trace around the replacement wood. Solid boat you have there rated for a 35hp. I searched 3 states for 6 months for the same boat, I only wanted the 2 back handles and the bow eye. I know that back handle size was only made for 3 years on the boat you have and the flying D.
