1978 Marquie

[Mikewadd]

I recently purchased a 1978 Marquie V195 to restore. I need any information I can get on this boat and it's maker. The hull is gray and there are placed that need to be painted. Some one drilled three hols in the tramson and sealed them with white selicon. I do not want to paint the hole hull just that spot. I know matching color is nearly impossible, but, I'd like to get as close as I can.

Re: 1978 Marquie

the boat should have an HIN# on the starboard upper transom or on the title. That will help ID the MFG.

Thanks for the info. Definitly be posting again, getting tired of taking boat to shop and waiting 2 to 3 weeks to get it back. I want to do all repairs myself and from what I have I can get all the help I need and more.

I like using craigslook you can find pictures of different types of your boat searching the entire US

You can also call them ask if they still have it an say your interested but you need more pictures and have them email more detailed ones to you
