Was curious about this Potter Built Hull if it is worth restoring. Any thoughts or comments I should look for? It is on a website for sale $1500 southeasttexas dot com

That's a Moesly-built Bowrider, much rarer and even better quality than any of the later Potter boats! Check out Carla's web site Carla (alias 65Bowrider) can tell you anything you want to know about a Bowrider!

Wow ... what a find! It is definitely a Moesly-built ... Potter didn't build any of the bowriders. The co-pilot seat looks like the very original thing with the lay-down seat option, sitting on a box with side pocket for storage.
The stringers are all fiberglass ... so nothing to replace there.

I agree with DonV ... have you written the check yet????

Looks just like my 65, with the exception of the OMC, mine's a mercruiser. Beautiful boat!

Congrats! I talked to Gerry about a week ago and he said it was in A-1 condition. great boat for a heck of a deal. An American original. I had already convinced the wife it would only take me 48 hrs to get from San Diego to Lake Sabine and back... Hope you'll post some pics. Enjoy!
