I've found one or two listed online in Ontario but couldn't seem to track down the owner or they haven't ever gotten back to me. Search around online and maybe you'll have more luck than me.

What's hiding below?

I am looking into purchasing a 1969 370. Due to covid, im trying to learn as much as possible before checking it out. Amazingly, there are few video walkthru's available online! In many boats, there are tanks, batteries, etc hiding underneath benches, beds, cabinets and inside wall cavities. Does th...
