Hey Featherhead, what part of GA are you in? I've been thinking of putting together a fall cruise-in, open for suggestions. (I'm just south of Atlanta, can't afford a trip much farther than north GA right now.)

Congrats on the Aristo Craft, that one caught my eye on CL! She's a beauty, post some more pics when you get a chance.

NICE Funliner! Mine's a 61. Those bow lights are all over eBay you should be able to pick one up for a reasonable price. Looks Like your boat has a lot of factory options. I have been searching for a hardtop for 3 years and still have not found ANYTHING. If you are interested you could probably make the side windows pretty easily out of plexi. Have fun and cheers
