International Fiberglass Boat, restoration of a 1964 Eliminator
Really good restoration of this little 14' flat bottom. The story about the company behind it is interesting too, the company was International Fiberglass of Venice California, and built boats on the side. They also built other fiberglass products and most of the business was built on giant fiberglass statues for advertising. Like a 20 foot mannequin. The boat was called an Eliminator, no relation to Bob Leach's company.
Anyway, this one was in his family forever and he did a great job fixing it up. Running a 1962 Merc 1000.

That is cool brings me back when I starting boating late 50's I remember the G3 with a v4 evinrude it was the s..t and giggles 131/2 ft of grins. Got to remember most boats were wood and that eliminator reminds me of a boat kit the bb. A 14 ft wood flat bottom just sleek. I had a 60 131/2ft mfg with a mark 55. It was fast for the times. 50 was flying. They filmed both the whaler cut in half and the British Seagull against currant on a oday type sailboat 7mph right in front of the dock I had a slip on. Thanks stuck in the house this is refreshing
