After doing alittle reading, they almost look like skeen chocks, except for the wing on the side???

For the sake of simplicity, OP could pick up a couple 'traditional' cleats and replace the chocks with them. I'd recommend keeping the chocks for future proper restore tho.

no, I am in NM. This is what it looked like when I traded an old .22 rifle for the boat.

Good trade, but where in the world could you use a boat in the deserts of NM? It doesn't exactly look like it's in its natural environment But I bet it is very dry and has very little rot, unlike here in FL where you can pretty much watch the moss grow by the hour My sister lives on Kirtland AFB in ABQ, so I visit fairly often, but I don't remember seeing much water along the way ? (man made lakes? reservoirs?) Congrats again on the score! I'm jealous.

Elephant butte Lake is about three hours south of Albuquerque. Ute Lake is a nice one by Tucumcari (eastern part of the state). In the northwest there is Navajo Lake. Anyway you slice it, you have to drive about three hours to get to a lake.
