SOLD SOLD SOLD
This is a 195? (probably '56-'58) Johnson Sea Craft "Holiday" runabout. Originally Marty had speculated that it was a Shell Lake, but upon getting my hands on an ORIGINAL sales brochure, I discovered it was made locally by Johnson Sea Craft of Everett.
I bought it from a fellow NWCBC member at the show in LaConnor several years ago. Marty helped me replace the floor and my son and I did some more work. When I got my hands on it, it had steering in the rear cockpit and a 50hp Evinrude. It made for a thrilling ride but not very manageable for my young boys.
We stiffened her up, relocated the steering to original, put in seats, reduced the horsepower and gave her a pretty paint job. But we have since moved to a smaller spot and simply have to thin the fleet (often heard story right?)
I'm posting it on Craigslist too.

And here's some photos of the restoration

I'm very sad to let her go, but you guys know the routine.
Give me a text/call if interested. Thanks -Zach 206.681.5080
