  • Winter project just pulled in...

    Hello guys, new member here in the Coeur D'Alene, ID area and I just received my winter project and I'm sure I will need a little "experience" to help me out to have it ready for next summer boating.

    I have what I believe to be an Enduracraft or Dorsett but the 57 Enduracraft has a full windshield in the cabin where mine is split. The later Dorsetts seem to have a glassed in transom area and a bow hatch where mine does not so I'm not really sure WHAT I am working with

    Hull is decent but the interior will need to be gutted. Looking forward to the groups' input...

      Looks like a fun winter project!
      I believe it to be a '58 EnduraCraft, in '57 they learned that the one piece front plastic windshield was not strong enough to hold up the top roof area and it would sag or break up from vibration. JMO!


      Don't let reality ruin your day!

        Now that is an awesome boat!

        The lines appear to be far ahead of its time. I particularly like that wonderful curved cabin front window!

        If my barn wasn't full, I be over there trying to buy it from you.

        (How did I do on this one guys?) :GoTeam1:
