Agree Zooma! It’s a sharp looking runabout in really decent shape. I suspect the prior owner needed the trim tabs especially if he had a particularly high winding motor in the engine bay.
Also 100% on board with a wraparound windscreen as opposed to what’s on it now! Should be a fun project. Keep us looped in!

Thanks jumpugly,

I think with a more raked wrap- around wind shield and a tidy afterdeck this could be a really nice looking little speed boat.

The cockpit detail also needs some detail work to replace the existing seats etc - but I think it has some potential.

Not sure why the trim tabs have been added, but if I find the model needs them,I could fit a pair of adjustable trim tabs to make them look better and function easier too.

Tough call Zooma, but might be an older Prather Deep-V runabout. Will keep checking.
