Mystery Shovelnose ID

[JohnnyRotten]

Got back and talked to the owner.

He's had it for 5-10 years, bought it at a local auction for a buck. Spent 150 dollars to move it, wife was livid.

Said he'll sell it for 200 dollars which is 150 more than I offered but probably worth it considering where I live.

Gonna get back to him on that after I get a little more info.

Has no real knowledge about it or paperwork on it.

I forgot to get the length but might head back tomorrow and give it another look see without him hovering.

The artwork appeared to be painted on as there were a few spots where the white gelcoat showed through.

Aside from two 1" holes holes along the hull on each side about two feet back from sponson......? and some scrapes and a couple stress stars, the hull looked pretty good.

No dark spots on the stringer holes. Scratched some lychen off the strb transom but saw no readable HIN.

Sorry for the crappy pics, had to resize to get them to work. Last one is under deck behind dash if that helps anyone out.
