Restorable at a reasonable price....

Nice rig!

She's a 1962 Vacationer.

Cruisers, Inc. started putting the hull ID on a small metal strip just below the gunwale covering boards in the early 1960s - in addition to the hull ID stamped into the wood of the transom. Most of these got popped off during repainting and never reinstalled.
