Still learning about the boat, but I believe we have a Wagemaker Wolverine No. 6 model. 6-16 Super.
The gentleman we purchased it from in August of 2019 had it in storage since 2007. He had only used it a couple times that year, having bought it from an estate sale in California. He said it had been in storage in CA since the late 1980s. I don’t know the history prior to that.
It has a 1987 Yamaha 70 outboard mounted. This seems a bit much for the boat... after rebuilding the carburetors and fuel pump it runs well, but I only explored about 1/3 throttle during our 30-minute shake down cruise. It has a few loose seams, but doesn’t leak (much). I’ll be doing spot repairs, but I don’t think it will require any major work in the near future.
