MULLINS SEA EAGLE

1938 MULLINS SEA EAGLE 16' RUNABOUT. RARE PRE-WAR SMALL INBOARD RUNABOUT THAT WAS ACTUALLY MADE OF TREATED STEEL SO IT WOULDN'T RUST. THEY WERE VERY POPULAR FROM THE 20-30'S BUT MOST DISAPPEARED DURING THE WAR WITH THE NEED TO RECYCLE STEEL - THUS NOT MANY SURVIVED. THIS IS A MAJOR PROJECT IDEALLY FOR SOMEONE WITH BODY SHOP SKILLS AS IT IS A METAL HULLED BOAT WITH LOTS OF MINOR DINGS AND DENTS TO SMOOTH OUT. IT IS MOSTLY ALL THERE ALTHOUGH WAS ORIGINALLY A RUNABOUT STYLE WITH HATCHES OVER THE ENGINE AREA WHICH WOULD BE EASILY REPLACED. THE LAST 2 PICTURES ARE OF A FULLY RESTORED 1938 MULLINS SEA EAGLE AND NOT THE ONE WE ARE LISTING - SHOWN FOR REFERENCE. NOTE THE UNIQUE FLUTED HULL BOTTOM SHAPE AND THEHATCHES OVER THEENGINE AREA.THE ENGINE IS ORIGINAL TO THE BOAT AND IS A RARE LYCOMING FLATHEAD 4 CYLINDER THAT APPEARS TO TURN SO SHOULD NOT BE BY FROZEN UP. ALSO HAS THEORIGINAL & MATCHING LYCOMING BY STEWART WARNER GAUGE PANEL & GAUGES (ENGINE AND GAUGES ARE WORTH OUR ASKING PRICE ALONE). HAS THE AMAZING AND ORIGINAL SEA EAGLE BOW PIECE, MOST OF THE ORIGINAL HARDWARE - BUT IS MISSING THEHATCH HARDWARE, BOW LIGHT. THE ORIGINAL STEERING WHEEL AND STEERING SHAFT WAS REMOVED AT SOME POINT BUT WHICH SHOULD BE READILY AVAILABLE OR COULD BE CONVERTED TO MODERN STYLE CABLE STEERING.
