Name that boat!

[upthecreek]

Like the title says...I'm looking for some info.
It's a 14' runabout...late 60's, the trailer was mfg in 1969 as is the Evinrude Lark 40 Selectric shift, the USCG tag: Serial # 270515, Capacity 900lbs, Power 50,
From what I know the tag on the side says: "Sea Liner" and under the tag: "Sam's Lynn" but I haven't been able to find any other info as far as Manufacturer etc.
I'm guessing it's a Slick Craft judging by the nose on the top cap.

I picked it up locally for free, trailer is decent (needs new lights & wiring) but the boats deck is soft in a few spots which usually means rotted plywood, stringers & ultimately the transom too.
The short block is siezed but, I found another one for $70.00 + shipping.
I don't mind doing a little project such as this, just looking for some info...

Here are some pics:

I don't think it's possible to find an uglier shade of green so it's definitley going to get painted if I keep it in the end...ultimately this is what I would like to end up with but white & red:

Re: Name that boat!

Neat looking old boat. Good luck with your project. There were a zillion and one figerglass boat manufacturers back then with many only producing a handful of boats so I doubt you'll find much in the way of info on that particular boat. The Johnson/Evinrude forum on here though will be a great resource for your motor.

I think there were a few different molds that just went around getting slightly modified by different boat builders when the previous builder was done with them. Relabeled and a few cosmetics and Wala! A brand new boat is born!
