I am a new owner of a 1962 13-footer that is in rough shape. Some curious findings so far:

- there are two corner brackets bolted through the aft corners and cracking in both corners; were these added on after the fact or part of original design?
- there is cracking of what seems like the fiberglass gel coat on the hull but instead of foam under the crack there is a hard brown surface
- I have not been able to find the hull ID number, I looked below the engine mounts on the transom and the starboard side of the transom, will check the anchor locker next
