Looking for 1977 to 1986 Arrow Glass Barracuda

[pbjohnson]

Greetings all -

My dad has a 1978 Arrow Glass Barracuda that is a great family fishing boat - deep enough for small children, but also great for bass and catfishing (trotlines/jugs as well). So, I'm in the market for one of my own, but they seem impossible to find. I almost got one today, but the seller backed out. Does anyone know of one of these models that I could acquire? I'd do some minor restoration if necessary (new flooring is probably my limit). I don't need a motor.

Thanks for your help!

By the way, here is a picture of my dad's boat. I'd make do with any make/model that is similar:


This is looking toward the bow of the boat... and yes, that's me.

Another one looking toward the bow. My dad is standing behind the steering console (there is a seat there that he hardly ever uses). That's me pulling the jugline and my wife is sitting on the livewell.

This one is looking toward the back of the boat. The steering console and seat are to the left of the picture. My mom is holding my son in the single back seat.

I would think one of the BPS targa type boats is what you'd be better off looking for. Champion makes a model called the fishhunter that's similar as do many of the major manufacturers. Basically it's an all species boat. You're going to have a very hard time finding one of those ArrowGlass boats and especially one that wouldn't require extensive restoration.
