You don't want that boat Slip, at least to fish it. MacKenzies weren't that durable to start, tended to be very wet, and a 40 year old wooden boat with a gas engine means lots and lots of headaches as well as structural and explosive dangers. If you are going the bass boat route, the best (at least under 30') is a 29 Dyer, though a 26 Fortier (which is faster and more fuel efficent but poor in a following sea) is a decent alternative. If you are an antique buff and want to work on a boat more than use it, then an old Eldridge/MacInnis is probably a better choice than a MacKenzie. That said, I still remember a guy next to me in the harbor I grew up on, who had a 20 foot open Mackenzie inboard bass boat (and a lot of oilskins) that I still dream about.
