This is an 18' classic/vintage fiberglass ski boat built by Dan Arena, who was a very reputable boat builder and racer from the 50's & 60's. We are the second owner of this boat which was originally bought in Northern California. This boat was repainted 12 years ago. The original Ford 260 motor was replaced with a newly rebuilt Ford 289 5 years ago (estimate 100 hours on rebuild) along with a complete rewire of the electrical system. The points distributor has been replaced with a pointless electronic style. Boat also has new seats and carpet. I would consider this boat a rolling restoration everyday user during the summer seasons and has normal wear but it shows beautifully. Every outing we receive compliments and thumbs up. Off season boat was stored indoors. This is a very rare and beautiful example of fiberglass boats from the 60's era. Please contact me for any questions.This item is being sold as is condition, no warranties.
