1963 Family Cruiser 28'
Posted: Mon Jul 14, 2014 5:28 pm
Hello,
I've rejoined and hope your new site thrives. Thanks for having it!
I'm an old rivet head with Lone Stars, Feathercrafts, Welded Crestliners
Have a 1963 28' Marinette Family Cruiser bought out of West Virginia 3. Years or so ago
Tittle says 1963 but research makes me think it's a 1958, sharp bow with curved gunnels.
Identical to one in photos yournewboat.com non available old sale ad with photos
Different from one on You Tube under Marinette Family Cruiser
She is a project now located in Southern Maryland, I live in Alexandria Va.
I may pull the 70 hp Original Gray Marine , shaft and all and go to a bracket with a 150hp Mercury.
Motor and or parts may be available. Not running unsure if stuck.
Also looking for steering wheel. It was stolen. Sits on a threaded shaft with key slot.
I will measure shaft.
Very cool boat, not corroded. Will post a picture.
Regards,
Andrew
