FREE BOAT: 1960 OWENS SEA SKIFF 25’. The Owens is thought to
be a 1960 DeLuxe Express Cruiser model. About 5 years ago, owner
Brandon was looking for a wooden boat. At the same time, a customer
of Brandon’s auto repair shop was in the process of restoring this Owens
when his restoration partner died suddenly. Not wanting to continue the
restoration alone, the customer and Brandon worked out a swap of boat
for automotive services. She has been on stands inside a storage unit in
Nobleboro, Maine, ever since. The owner has a sales brochure from
Glen Cove Yacht Service in Glen Cove, NY, and it is believed that she
spent her life on fresh water in upstate New York. The boat appears
solid, but some re-assembly is required. Comes with a 327 engine and
transmission, not in the boat and not known to be original. All hardware
thought to be there, though fuel tank is missing. (continued on page 2.)
