I'm ArthurEld from Long Island, NY My girlfriend and I bought a 1966 13' Boston Whaler that we plan to fix up and use this summer. We're looking for a 35 hp motor and will need a few other things I'm sure. Look forward to being a member of this great looking site.

I owned it for 13 years before moving up to a Montauk. The 13' was perfect for running up and down the shallow waters of the Colorado river back in the 70's... I'm sure you will have fun getting it ready for the water.

This site is just what I need. I can see this will be a fun project. We have a very small dock space available within walking distance of our new house in Babylon so this little boat will be perfect.
