[QUOTE="bunny, post: 422838, member: 21688"] Hi! In response to your inquiry: I see from your pictures you are planning to use multiple small motors. Arkansas Traveler had a very large 14' utility model in the 50's that had three seats topped with mushroom growing plywood and oak gunnels. My father had about a dozen of them that he rented to fishermen from the Chicagoland area. This boat has an elegant appearance with a wide high beam and lower, narrower transom. They looked somewhat bullet shaped with wasp waste at the transom. A 10hp motor of the era was not even close to overpowering this model. If I find one, I will buy it myself for a restoration of my own. Good luck on your search! Lew [/QUOTE]
