Skools, look familiar? Sorry for the crappy pic, no working scanner. I took a picture of photograph. I loved my Conti, very solid hull. I heard they were used as law enforcement boats in FL. I think they were only made for a few years in the late 70's.

Skools, she was a 21, same hull as yours, either a 78 or 79, can't remember. I can't find any info on the net on these boats. Do you have any links?

did a fence a few months ago. the guys nieghbor has that same boat in his back yard. in bad shape though. spidered all over. soft floors, soft transom, a yammy 130 that is siezed, and when i moved some of the 3 or 4 inches of rotten leaves i saw that console was completely broken from the floor. the guy i was working for said that it has just sat thier for about 5 years. so i waited for the guy to get home to see if i could pick it up cheap. about 2 seconds into the conversation i knew this guy was an idiot! told me about a guy who tried to trade him a nice contender for the pos. but, since he was in a bind for cash he would make me a DEAL. all i could do not to laugh in his face when he said i could pull her home, on my own trailer, for 5 grand. he had some kind of "special" trailer too. said i could have it for 3500. it only had 1 flat tire and wasn't rusted all the way thru. ya'll want his number?

none really Tin

and yes those hulls do spider crack bad. I fixed this one's. It had a ton on the top sidebut that's what epoxy is for, the floor and transom are like a rock in her now. had to fix the gas tank cover as seen above.
