I was out last week on a local lake and my son said look at that Whaler, I said where and he had to point it out as I walked right by it, as it didn't look like any of the other 20 or so Boston Whalers we saw that afternoon on this lake.
Interesting old boat needed some good cosmetic work on the topsides as shown in the pictures looked pretty rough but it is used.
Looked like somebody just put fiber mat on the outside and painted it without fairing. But she was floating on her waterline.
I wasn't familiar with this older type Dauntless very interesting.

EJO,
I bought a used one of those 14 years ago for use at my cottage. It is an excellent family and lake boat that we are still using today. As a matter of fact that is my main boat when I am boating on inland waters (not the big waters of Huron and Michigan).

YES Don that does look like a great family boat and with optional 130 HP it will do anything with the whole family on board I assume.
Lucky you.
