I just bought this boat for $140. It came with a boat and trailer and a 1958 Johnson seahorse 30 horsepower. The motors in really good shape just needs to be gone through and cleaned up but I think it's way too much for this boat. It does not have a tiller, it came with controls for a remote steering. I will try to find a 20 horsepower motor and just restore the old Johnson for future. This old boat needs a lot of work and the trailer looks to be home built. Boat measures just shy of 14 to feet and 50 in wide at its widest point. I have no idea what brand or model it is, hopefully somebody can tell me from the pictures.

Check the hull ID tag. Generally the first four alpha characters will give you a good idea of the mfr.

Ther is a tag on the inside transom but it's so far gone that I cannot make out any information on it. It looks like it's a metallic decal more than a metal plate. I will try to get a good picture of it.
