The glass is good in the windshield and the side angled quarter windows. All of the cushions are in good condition and everywhere there is a wooden seat there are also cushions thatgo with it. We had the boat taken to a local shop and they flushed the water out of the engine, serviced it and got it running again and since it was getting late in the year decided tohave it winterized. A severe and unusual wind storm came up and swamped the boat and alsorubbed a hole in the hull as our pictures show. He brought it back to Wallowa County and used it briefly on Wallowa Lake. These repairs and work cost himover $25,000.00 for all ofit to be done. Checked over and repainted the exterior of the vessel. Cleaned all of the interior finish and made it look almost like new. Heinstalled his new engine in hisshop and checked out the propeller, shafts, seals and everything about this boat to make sure it was ready to use. ![]() (He kept the old motor and it would be available if you wanted to go pick it up as he will not ship it.)So he decided to install a new modern fuel injected V/6 Chevy marine engine. He purchased this boat on the east coast and since the old original motor wasn't in the best of operating condition he chose to upgrade and make it a more reliable vessel. If I measured the beam width correctly it is actually closer to 7 feet 6 inches wide across the center of the passenger compartment. I am not sure that it is really a Runabout but comparing it to other pictures that is what I came up with. I am selling this vintage 1955 Lyman23 foot wooden boat complete with a nice heavy Sea Lion tandem axle trailer for a friend of mine. ![]()
