We had a remote lake cabin on Lake Shasta, accessible only by boat. Absolutely best boat for us, was a 1960, 14.5 ft. fiberglass with 40 hp SeaKing. Bought it used, cheap!! Was the most versatile, easiest to own/use boat we ever had. Could move family and supplies. Great memories. Nowadays everything is over-engineered..

Now I want an old boat for my new pond. I would be happy with anything that floats and I can spend hot afternoons dipping my feet in the water or hanging out with the pond life.

Old aluminum boats are the best. You seldom see fiberglass or wooden boats lasting as long as aluminum boats do. I've owned several and currently own a 14 foot deep V, 1969 Proline with a 1969 electric start 25hp Evinrude. I got the boat, two motors (25hp Evinrude & a 7.5hp Honda 4 stroke) a very nice trailer, battery, oars, paddles and anchor for $500 dollars U.S.

good on you them older boats are better then the newer ones as long as the motor works my grandfather had a old sears sea king 14 foot with a 25 hp Johnson motor from the 60's he used it for years intell he sold it in the early 2000's for noting i remember he he never had a trailer for it we threw it in the back of his old extended bed dodge 79 Dakota 4X4 and went to the greenbrier river for the week ends to catch large mouth and small mouth and sriper and catfishing on his days off from working in the coal mines those boats are a lot better made then new one for sure

Hello there. Hopefully that motor is still running. Although the actual motor is air cooled the exhaust is water cooled. They are cooked by an impeller. You will have to purchase a new one. The exhaust is cooled so the seal in the crank shaft doesn’t go out. Also the little impeller pieces can go into the motor. Just a quick tip!
@HayWoodsandWetlands

Well that would explain a lot. The motor runs fine, but leaks the leg oil like crazy. Sounds like maybe I cooked the seal out? Are there parts still available for these old units? Any idea where a guy might find'em?
