Re: Arkansas Traveller?

sorry..Dont have any specifics info other than they are out of business, and were well made boats. My traveller is a 14' aluminum, and is very stout and well made. Manufactured in 1957, and thicker than any aluminum i have seen recently.

Welcome to iboats! I've got a real soft spot (no pun intended... ) for the Traveler as my parents had one with 33 Evinrude Ski Twin (or was it a Fastwin? or maybe Speeditwin...? :redface on it when I was but a wee tyke.

Hop on over to the resto forum where you can follow along on the resurrection of a 62 Traveler.

Mick's got a '62 on the go in the restoration section. He's likely got the 411 on your boat. Maybe send him a PM, and welcome to the forum.
