Nicely Finned Reinell in Storage

[Wally]

Here's a Reinell with great fins. It has green plants growing in it so I hope it doesn't have wooden stringers. That's a 1959 Mark 58A on the transom. It's in a storage yard on the North Shore Road, Belfair so I think someone has a great project ahead of him/her.

Hello Wally

Yes I have one on these in my yard heading for N. Cal soon .
These would look great in White with red fins pulled by a Red & White 57 chev Belaire 2 dr HT . Now that would be COOL

They look really cool with a hardtop and a Merc hanging off the back!

This project is finally moving up in the que as I have actually sold some project boats to make room in both the shop and wallet.

[Karl]

Now that is cool!

Those eye bolts on the transom tell me this was a ski boat back in the day!

It is a '58 Corvette top. Only condition is to not modify the top so that it can still be used on the Vette (crazy that the top is worth 5 times what the boat is worth!). The only thing I have gone back and forth on is the power. The Merc would would work fine, especially after Frankenmerc works his magic, but I also have a tiny little 4 cylinder Grey Marine flathead that I would love to make it an inboard. The merc would get me on the water with finished boat much faster, but the inboard would be really cool!

[Outlaw]

Brian, I would say run the merc but the flathead would be oh sooo kool and what a sound it would have. so, go for it. hot hot hot.

I am looking for an old Merc for my Jetabout. I have a 1988 25hp Merc that would go in a possible trade or something.

[floyd066]

Where is it located? I am trying to find as many as I can as these Reinells aren't very common. These Jetabout have a great shape with the fins being a true part of the hull, not just an add on.
