I am pretty sure this is the same model I chased all around central NY but it finally disappeared. Love the styling! |

Don't know why this made me laugh so hard when I read it. Dan Arena was a famous boatbuilder. I don't know who Don Arena is/was. BKH

Now you guys are gonna break my heart.I have tAat same boat,My first boat gave 700 dollars for it.The stringers were so bad I broke a shaft from v drive to prop.So I removed the rub rail and sawwed the deck off.new stringers and floor no foam trapped air.Used it for years
It could use a new interior and a paint job.Last year somehow the drivers side windshield broke.If that one had one I'd buy it just for it.Forever known to my pals as "THE ZAT BOAT--ze broke"I went thru my worst storm in the old boat and was glad I knew what was under the floor."ts older than my wife and I've had it longer." Munday And tons of storage BTW mines 1961 |

I'm trying to find a pic of the first production fiberglass Arenacraft. Dan Arena's nephew, also Dan Arena, hunted the boat down, restored it, and shows it at some of the local shows. I have a video with him talking about the boat, but can't seem to find a still pic. If I find it, I'll put the pic up. BKH

I've seen thoce BKH,there is a grandkid now Kit I think trying to find some.The early were Baracudda"s also.I was told years ago mine was one of maybe 35 produced in 1961,with the v drive beeing the rarest.Wish that one was closer in had rear hatch and windshield.

the one I fell in love with was a conventional inboard with a closed bow, red and white. Is that bowrider setup original??

Fairly nice driver option on the 69.That is a non factorry for sure had the guy send rest of pics.Missing the most desired pieces for me,And the butchered in bow rider is an ugly mess.What a waste!!
