Hi All!
We recently purchased a property (built in '61) that came with a really intriguing older boat. I'm fascinated by its appearance and would like to kindly seek assistance identifying it. I searched for a HIN but could not locate one. If anyone out there is familiar with the style/type- any advice would be so greatly appreciated!

Some kind of v drive. No hole in the transom for a jet.
 
And no mount on the transom for an outboard or an I/O. So must be v-drive.

Unless this was a hull being built and not yet completed (versus one that was built and stripped down).

HIN are usually (past a certain date) stamped on the starboard side transom. Not that I see one in your photos there...
 
The square corners on that transom seem distinctive, most look like they are a lot more rounded.

Maybe try riverdavesplace.com? They have a v drive forum.
