My next project is an early 70's crosley fiberglass boat. Problem is I cant find any info on this manufacturer. Anyone ever heard of them?

Although not about Crosley boats, this link is about Boston Whalers and Crosley motors - a very interesting read.

Begining to wonder if this boat is actually a crosby and not a crosley. There is no identificatiion plate on the boat. I am only going by what I was told the boat was. Think I will post some pics and see if that helps jar anyones memory.

There used to be a Crosley that made the "Sea Sled", a well- known flat bottom boat. It was the forerunner of today"s Carolina Skiff and were highly regarded in their day.

Can you post a pic of the boat? I've got a '69 crosby.
