Another hull ID question

[euro scott]

ran into a guy that cant ID his boat, and its a 1970 from what he thinks, so I thought I would put it up for the gurus to help..Pretty cool little v bottom with a 25 merc cable steering set up

Hi, My names Patrick & I am the owner of the mystery boat. I will post a couple better pictures & Please look closely. Going by the pictures I have seen of Invaders It is not one. Title says 1971 11'8" & in the box that says "Odometer status or vessel manufacturer or OH use" it says "ROBEL". I have a 15hp 4-stroke merc. on it & it tops out about 28mph (gps). I would like to sell/trade it & put the motor on a nice little skiff that would better suit my boating conditions.

thanks

1974 archercraft ist throttle after engine install,trim was wrong,kinda surprised me.

Crazy! I have a different boat now & it is a 2 seat version of that ! has 40hp merc.

[robsa61]

cool,i have never seen another one in person.it seems archercraft has fishing type boats and that little hydro.does anyone know the model on the type in this discussion?by the way, i got my four seat off craigsist 5 or 6 years ago because i had never seen one and the hull looked fast.i sold the old merc off it cheap,it is now a mailbox(it was too far gone,but looked nice).last year a 1988 omc fell in my lap for 500 bucks.the boat is not pretty but i have about 1400 into it including a new cdi,nice stainless prop,tach,12 gallon tank(it's a crossflow so it guzzles gas).it handles like it's on rails if you run the trim right.i cannot find any specs on the model....but i figure if this 300 plus # 90hp is ok,a 115 weighs about the same,want more.60mph is in range of it could bite you if not careful.it is such a nice boat to drive,i will now put money into it.will now install a hydraulic jack plate for better tuning ability and skinny water.
