New Friends,

As of this afternoon, I'm buying yet another "old school" boat, "for peanuts" to return to stock & fish the narrow waters of south TX.
(The long/skinny hull should be great for our smaller lakes, creeks & rivers, here.)

This one I know little about, except it was built in Minden, LA by Tidecraft in 1969 & the son of the sole owner (deceased) believes that it was called a "BAYOU 15".
The trailer is a period SHORELINE & in good shape.
(The hull looks quite like a "pointed nose" SUPER SKEETER of the late 1960s.)

The little rig is all there & seems to need a few small repairs & an outboard motor.
(Inasmuch as I collect/repair/restore Evinrude, Gale, Johnson & Sea King "Big Twin" OBs, she will be powered by one of my 40HP "Johnnyrudes" of the late '60s.)

In the event that anyone, who is reading this post, knows any information about the 1965-75 TIDECRAFT boats, I would appreciate hearing from you.
A good-quality color photo of the boat when it was new would be nice, too.

THANKS, tex
