Fibretron

[AEROCOOK]

Has anyone heard of Fibretron?<br />My buddy just gave me his old boat and I cant seem to find any information on it at all, it's a fibretron and I think it was made in the mid 70s<br />Even a Google search turned up nothing!<br />I live in Ontario Canada and Im begining to think this may be a Canadian company that wasnt around for very long.<br />Its a 15 foot ski boat.<br />anyone???

Re: Fibretron

I've heard of Aquatron, Glastron, and Fibreform but I do not recall the most infamous boat manufacturer of all - Fibertron the lost boat builder...<br /><br />Hmmm, a little less egg nog is in order!<br /><br />Fibretron could have been a small manufacturer but it also could have been a model of boat made by some manufacturer.<br /><br />Check the stern for a plate that might or might not show a hull ID. If it has a hull ID (12 characters) then the first 3 characters might tell us who the manufacturer is.

Re: Fibretron

Well I cheched the Transport Canada plate on the boat and it identifies the builder as Fibretron.<br />The model is "Ski boat 15" Maximum recomended power 36kw and load capacity 444 kilograms.<br />Thanks for reminding me about eggnog, I have a lonely bottle of rum in the cupboard so Im off to get some!

Re: Fibretron

NEWS FLASH! Fibretron boats were made by Mike Coe of Brooklyn R.V., Brooklyn Ontario. Last known operating in 1990 when family bought 14ft ski-boat. Other version seen in shop was bass-boat top. Rated for 75HP, we installed 150HP Merc inline-6 and we're still cruising lakes with bugs in teeth 20 years later. Thanks Mike.
