Please give me your gut instinct thoughts please. I will not be offended by anything. I appreciate any and ALL input. I acquired a 1968 Larson Shark or Runabout... Lapline Model 16+ foot Open Bow Outboard Boat. My primary use will be for Fishing. Please give me ideas what any of you would name it if you owned it.

Thank You Fishingstage Family


Well, You could named it Rusty, I named my blazer that,

That is really awesome. I agree that the ride will be rough in 5' seas or waves but oh well. Been there done that in my 1962 Clipper Craft with my 18 month old daughter sitting in the steering wheel. Wife was grinning too. just windy and choppy but no rain that day about 24 or more years ago. The 1973 Glaspar I have is a trihull too. It does just fine as well. Was running about 70MPH against the wind in 4 foot waves just go and don't crank the steering wheel or stop. I used to say gitty up to Josie the big brown and black mare (horse) on the Alfalfa Ranch. I find myself saying gitty up in my truck JEEP or Boats when I wanna go fast.

Thank You for sharing your good experience with this type of hull. I know its HEAVY DUTY fiberglass not paper thin plastic. A bit heavy but that is good for stability and will keep hull moving in rough water due to momentum. Inertia will get you where you are headed.
That is really awesome. I agree that the ride wil... (show quote)

You just reminded me of Red Sovine’s song, Giddy Up Go. 😄🐠🕺

I had a glass master tri-hull in a 16 ft. can't beat it on inland lake fishing had no problem with it in rougher waters, does it have trim & tilt on engine controls keep your bow a little planned up in white cap water like you said they are very stable in the water a little hard on gas because of the tri-hull front end, as long as she plans good your ok ps name her the uss shark l.o.l


Being as it is 1968 OUTBOARD Model. The Trim is adjustable but fixed. No Electric Trim Control.

Yes I agree with all the suggestion but more importantly Thank You Fishingstage Family for all the great input. I have laughed many times and that is what I love about this website and forum.

Ship for Brains cracked me up few minutes ago.

It is a 1968 Larson Shark. Runabout or Lapline is also what the HULL Model may be known as. Heavy F Duty Fiberglass with a Keel Guard and hardly a nick in the external fiberglass. Hull is Rated for about 110 to 120 Maximum HP.

Well,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, I don't think I would name it for awhile. I would wait to see if it catches fish, and if it runs o.k.
I haven't seen a Homelite motor for a while. Do you know who made them? It looks like it might have been made by Chrysler. I think this boat might give you something to do during your downtime. Good luck with it, and keep us posted. A tri-hull is pretty rough riding.


When I saw the first picture I thought "Teddy" Rough Riders.
