No trailer included. No leaks what-so-ever! Factory original floatation from 1972, which was a great year for 14 or 15' open boats!!!


Can be seen from Buoy FL-3, on the embankment slide, under the big oak tree, and under a green, home made cover.
I agree with the aluminum boat as well. My son sport a 1970 vintage aluminum boat with an 8 HP Merc. Him and his buddies run around Green's Basin and all have similar boats (except for one with the mini replica of an off shore racer). They are great on gas and a good way to learn the lake.

Regarding the safety course, depending on your kid's ages they may not be eligible. My son is only 14 so I had him take the online class and practice test ( I used 90 or better to pass)
