My brother had one of those in red & white with little fins on the rear deck. Bought it for $600, ran it for two seasons and sold it for $600.

I'll have to dig up a photo of mine. I have a 57 or 58 Sea King runabout. Its aluminum, and it was back when Montgomery Wards sold boats. It was a rebadged version of a really high-quality boat. Rivets every 1", heavy gauge aluminum, nice boat. My windshield has long gone the way of the dodo, but its painted robin-egg blue and I call her the blue goose.
Now to find pictures...
Something along the lines of that vintage boat stirs something in me, the wife and I have been thinking of getting a little runabout for on the lake here on base, and I think I may have to go that direction. I'm an idiot, I want an old boat and an old Porsche.
