I've located an outboard in California, but they don't want to mess with shipping.  It will be a restoration project too.  Anyone passing thru the Redding area that would be willing to pick it up?  Willing to help with fuel costs.

tagging, this sounds COOL1

I have a 1958 16ft fiberglass tri-hull I got from my dad who got it from my uncle. I need to redo all of the wood and fiberglass on the inside but it’s a project for later. Eventually I’d like to paint Match it green with my 1974 highboy. Might start on it this summer.

Paul Comeau (probably not spelled right) is in Vancouver and does airbrush and truck lettering, one of the best around that I knew of.

Thanks Chris, I'll contact him.  Sent you pics, OK to post them if you can.

I've narrowed it down to these.  In case anyone has one laying around.  Trying to stick with tillers.  10hp doesn't require registration, it's never had a number on it.  25hp is max allowed per CG and I still like speed.
