Tripp Anglers were far and few between, round bilge = rolls like hell if you were on the sow in any kind of swell.

There were also alot of Brownells and Surf Hunters.

Infact the Surf Hunters live on in aluminum over there now.
There's never been a modern setup that compares to the abilities of a Surf Hunter with the forward casting platform with controls.

Krispy we will have to compare notes as I have recently started my 69 Sea Craft 20 resto, I am going back with the I/O that it came with much better lines and much safer IMO. Weird part about it is I think I bought my dads first boat, I am trying to track down owners with little success. My new transom is all cut out just needs to get glassed in (this weekend)
