Nice looking boat. Especially nice that you can see all the stringers etc. Looks like a pretty deep V though. You think a 40 is gonna give it enough push?

My next boat will have to be aluminium.

Looks like a good foundation to build on.

Best of luck!

my present and the one before were aluminum. this just looks like a fun project. with a vintage engine. wouldn't it be nice to take back to a mill finish hull and a black with red deck, or black hull, red deck. like a black and red 57 chevy.

Saw that I think on ebay the other day and thought that looked like a fun project. Too bad I have no income and am trying to get a boat tourney ready -- and finish the Lund too.

Looks like you're another victim of MBD (Multiple Boat Disease).

I've had multiple bike disease for years. I'm just getting started on multiple boat disease.


Someone please shoot me if I develop multiple airplane disease too.

tashasdaddy, I just got this old Duracraft. I think it is the same as yours but some one cut the front cover off of it. If it is the same then they really messed up the original part of it since I do not have that peice. I was hoping to make it into something nice. I will get some pics.
Is your boat a model # 20924? I would like to register mine and use it for fishing.

i have no idea of the model #, that boat was restored, and sold 6 months ago. if you want more pics, send me a Private Message.
