    I don't know what year the boat is but it's a nice one.
    When I was a kid there used to be a lot of those Skeeters around.
    That Evinrude on the back looks like a '56 Fleetwin.

    The first and only owner said he thought it was a 56?? The motor is a evinrude 10hp 1958. I'm trying to get it registered so we can fish the skeeter owners tournament. Thanks for y'alls help

    I think your boat is more like a '66.
    Was that picture taken at White Rock?

    66??

    Wonder how it hooked up with a '58 Sportwin Evinrude.

    He assured me it was from the 50's, but he is in his 90's

    Yes that's WRL I live down the street and fish there and Bachman when I can't get away.

    Stemco bought Skeeter in the 60's, so it has to be from that era.

    I work about 15 minutes from where that pic was taken.
    As for an older motor being on a newer boat, I have a '56 Elgin tin boat with a '99 Merc on it so anything is possible.
    And I think the motor is a '57. Look at this:http://rides.webshots.com/album/559137280LPUdSO
