The vin # should offer some clues.  It cotains info as to year built and manufacture.  I see the metal place on the right rear in the photos.  It might be a Shanee.  Built over in AR.  They are a lot like the Supreme boats.

It looks like a Supreme but could also be a Shawnee. That's seems a bit high given the condition it appears to be in and there is no trailer. No paper work,,, north Mississippi,,, better take a gun if you go pick it up.

That be one of those skinny boats, put a stripe down the middle with instructions not to leave it :o
Low transom, will need a plate to lift a jet up :(

Trailer-$1600 at least from MO.

I looked at a boat like that , it was made by an old company named Raven. I guess they are gone.
I would also like to say , if that guy only used that boat twice, he cant borrow anything from me. He is rough on stuff ;D

Looks like it was used twice in the 10 years it spent sitting in his front yard....

That's what I was thinking.  It stinks to high heaven like a hot boat, but how the hell do you steal a boat and not get the trailer to go with it?   ???
