1963  17' century resorter --- this is a project boat but not a basket  case.please review the pictures  and if you are concerned about a specific issue please ask or call me anytime. This a 99 percent complete boat motor and trailer package.what I know is missing is the boarding ladder and original stern light.included but not pictured is the stainless trim for the bow vinyl and the very long pieces for the sides.there is some wood damage on the starboard side at the rear bottom and side.also an upper forward plank needs to be replaced. The transom has already been replaced and is great shape. The plywood floor  and carpeting needs to be replaced.the port side planking is in very good shape as is the starboard side except where damage is noted. The bottom is the original and should be inspected  and probably be glassed over. The engine is a complete small block ford that has always run strong but has not been used is 20 years so consider a rebuild or replacement going forward. The velvet drive trains is excellent as is the shaft prop and rudder. The plastic windshield is hazed and should be replaced however the frame is very good. The interior is maroon and white and needs no replacement. Vinyl is soft and plyable and is great shape including the bulkhead, bow, engine  box and dash. The engine box needs interior insulation. The dash is in great shape with all original gauges  that worked when last used. The steering wheel and pull  throttle are original and all associated linkage is there. Also there's a custom made water line canvas cover included. It needs some minor repair but still very usable. Finally there is a 1988 galvanized caulk in a bunk trailer. It needs lights only. A 2 inch ball is required. So if you are interested in taking over a moderate level project boat you may want to consider this one. The boat has a clean jersey title and the trailer will come with a notarized bill of sale and a registration.Thanks for your time and interest and good luck.
