This is probably a long shot but I'm looking for:
Windshield.. Yes I know... (probably will end up making one) Morse throttle control. The shifter is dash mounted but I don't know if the 60s era Morse controller would be any different internally. Any info regarding the correct model number would be appreciated as well because it might be in a boneyard near me. Correct vent scoops for the Front and back. Mine never had any originally near as I can tell. At some point someone added two 2" front vents under a 70s correct craft front scoop. Step pad frames and the pads. Two of the frames are somewhat serviceable but two are incorrect for the boat. None of the pads that go inside the frames are left. I've searched online for them but haven't come up with anything. Any help is greatly appreciated! |

Are the pads and frames the same as the late 60's boats? If so do a search for step pads, someone was remaking them and N3 had them also. I thought Marty was looking into having step pad frames remade?

We have 2 frames that are rough and need chroming we'll sell. I've bought pads from N3 and they are nice.

For Windshields you might look here:
NOS Windshields It's an older posting, but at one time he had a lot of windshields, more pictures here" Windshield Gallery This place has some older CC windshields, specifically a 1968 18ft Ski Nautique, which appears to be the same as on the 63/64 Ski Nautique - call for availability: UPD Plastics |

Ethan,
Since you're regelling the boat, plug up the added vent holes. Looks like all there was were clamshells (standard Perko) on the gunnels at the cockpit bulkhead which is typical of 60's boats. The venting is then directed to the bilge via a duct or simply by the area created by the inside cockpit panels which yours won't have. Both my Atom and my X55 are set up that way. Go original! |

I have 4 frames with 4 black step pads from a 65 Mustang I would sell. Not perfect by any means but solid and straight.
I can get you some pics if you want. |

Fwiw, n3 doesn't have any step pads and they don't know if or when they will. Their source dried up apparently, but they are trying to find someone to reproduce them again.

Ethan, It was Frank (FrankT) who was making them in fact, I believe the ones N3 had were his. I see he hasn't been around since June so see if you can PM him. I talked with him several years ago because I was trying to reproduce pads for my X55. I wanted to know what compound he was using to cast the white since white casting urethanes turn yellow with the UV. He had found something that worked and I wish I remembered what it was. I need to write things down! I still have the mold that I pulled off an original. One of these days I'll go after the project again. Currently the X has generic pads. |

Yeah frank found something that was uv stable. They were bright white. I believe n3's were from another source, I recall them being more off white.

I have a windshield. It is a Taylor Made that was used up to 1971. It is for sale. I may have some step pad frames and old inserts I will sell. Good luck finding new inserts. I may have some the old clamshell vents.
