Interesting Craigs List finds

Yes, take a look in the 1975 brochure and there's a couple of pages on the San Juan Flybridge. The one in the brochure has twins, that would be very cool.

For that price, including trailer, someone needs to snap it up.

Or who's going to buy it and do a stringer job on it!

The first San Juan I saw was an SJ Flybridge which was rotting on our lake for a couple years until it rotted in a boat yard for another couple years. Neat boat; HUGE project.

That kind of boat I would do piece by piece or install some tie bars before destruction.

Came across this one on another forum.

What a hoot!

Not a correct craft, but a great looking old ski boat:

Nice '93 for you team red guys

Mostly-original (??) looking 50's Atom Skier in New Hampshire - it at least has a manufacturer tag with the serial, that's a great start. Has an engine, unknown status, stored over 30 years. But the price seems right! If I was looking for a project... however I think my wife would not be impressed.

There's a chance I'll be driving through Brattleboro VT next week to look at a truck for work, if so I'll try to see that Atom. No interest in it myself.

Here's a 95 on eBay, going cheap. 95 Ski Nautique on eBay

That's different

(Quote) mentioned to my wife a couple days ago that I'm thinking about restoring an antique boat. She wasn't impressed but she didn't say no... technically. This boat looks like its in descent shape for a great restore. Especially for $1,100. She did say that she wants a new yukon before I start the project. I guess I'm looking for a new vehicle so I can get to New Hampshire before one of y'all do.
On a serious note, how hard is it to get parts for that engine or possibly a new block if it came down to it? (Quote)

I have pretty much that same boat except with fins. The K block is what it looks like should be reasonably easy to get parts and is a better fit for that small hull than the 327 AMC in mine. Price seems very fair but be advised there is not much structure under the plywood sides so if needing new hull material the boat sort of disappears when you remove the skins. A bit scary for me. Looks like the top deck has been replaced and the trailer is non original. Probably a fair price for what is there and it has potential for a boat not worth more than $5k in very good condition.

Jack,
Keep in mind that the Atom Chris is looking at is the original short 14'6" hull so the engine is a 4 cyl. Graymarine/Continental and not a Chris/Hercules K.
Mark,
Gray parts can be hard to come by but it really depends on to what extent you want to rebuild it. I'd say a top end valve job should not be a problem at all but the bottom end may. Before you tear into the bottom, look for the availability of things like undersize bearings and oversize pistons. If you ever get to that point, I can give you a couple phone numbers to call.
