That Arabian looks good, although it kinda looks like it has bottom paint on it. Certainly worth checking out. They were making V drives long before CC. Peter, come to Sebago sometime. My brother has a 1980 Resorter that he and I bought new. Gorgeous boats, but not as sporty as a Correct Craft. Sort of like a Fleetwood compared to a SS396, or in your case, a 427 Camaro.

Those arabians are very cool. Never seen one before, but then again I didn't even know what to look for. I bet one would make a nice boarding boat, and a tower on one probably wouldn't look out of place.

From poking around a bit, looks like some Arabian were sterndrives and and some were V-Drives. Here's a cool video of a V-Drive Arabian with a Chrysler 440:

The wood Arabian's were even more interesting!
1960 when they were painting the hulls: 
Here's a 67. The bright version was made for about 3 years. The engine of choice was the 390!

That painted Arabian is georgeous. My brothers 80 has a chrome windshield that still looks great today. They didn't scrimp. What a glare it'll give you though.

For thousands of years men have felt the irresistible urge to go to sea, and many of them died. Things got better after they invented boats.

For 4g's he went all out on the engine stands. You have to wonder about the quality components used on the rebuild.

My interpretation was that they were low hours on rebuild, not "fresh".

89 Sport Nautique < 9k
Wow Sport Nautiques are under $9k now? Of course it is an '89 and doesn't have composite stringers or removable platform, but still.
