Hey Joe, nice motor and boat. In a effort to make it easy on you, here’s a couple of links for you http://www.retrocrestliner.com/ and http://retrocrestliner.com/phpBB3/

Good luck on getting the boat back in shape. It’s unfortunate that people feel it necessary to hack up a old boat but I guess you can’t fault someone that does it. They have their reasons, just not mine. When you get over there let’s see some more pics. From what I see here I would think that it’s a few years newer than ’53.
