get it, you never know if it was a historically significant drag boat... I would say its a Sanger based on the lines/dash/stern (the Sangers have a unique look where the sponsons transition into the gunns on the side)
put it in the back yard upside down...

....or sit in it and make 1500 horse blower motor noises and then launch myself over the deck and onto the lawn.
Prolly go see if I can make contact with owner just to see what's up, maybe get a better look at condition and if there is any hardware squirrelled away.
If he cared or was moving forward with it.....she'd be upside down or covered, that's for sure.
From my quick walk around the floor and stringers didn't look terrible but that doesn't mean they're good.
HIN could be inside or outside transom?Posted from my Etch A Sketch

On the slim chance someone might recognize it....this had 3 blue airbrushed angled bars and smokey random black scallops? along hull aft of sponsons.
I'm thinking '69-'72?Posted from my Etch A Sketch

Probably transom, photos of the graphics (minus the snow) may be helpful as well... AND shots of any other graphics on the hull... Originally Posted by JohnnyRotten

From what little I can see, it looks like factory Sanger artwork/graphics, which I love... All of the factory art was lost on my Sanger hydro... :( Originally Posted by JohnnyRotten
