Gentlemen:
My Elco 57 came with a dinghy that I cannot identify. All the markings and stickers have been removed. I'll tell you what I do know and hopefully, someone will be able to identify it for me. I have asked Donn West to post a few photos for me. If he's home, maybe he'll have a chance to help me out too. Anyway, the boat is 9' long and fiberglass (yuk) but it's a good one that is covered with wood trim that might be teak, although it's so weathered, it's hard to tell for sure. It seems to be a "high end" craft that can be rowed, sailed or powered. (Unfortunately, the mast is missing.) I would guess that it weighs at least 150-200 lbs. It has a retractable center board that looks as if it is raised with a pull-cord, although it's stuck. So gentlemen, anyone have an idea what I have here? :confused:
