From the picture, that's a 1960-1963 MFG Corry Carefree, with fiberglass deck. First year was 1958, and was available either as a totally open boat or with a mahogany deck from 1958-1960. Really nice little boat.

My dad had a 1960 Corry Carefree with an 18hp Evinrude that he later upgraded to a 28hp Johnson. It's rated for 30 hp so it would fly with your 40hp.

It was far from original but was one hell of a fishing boat. Attachments: Check this box to be notified of replies to this topic. Note: BBcode and smileys are still usable.
