It's the boat. I went back and read the thread. It was for sale in Alfred, ME. That's when I saw it. What lake are. You running it on? I'm on Mousam in Shapleigh/Acton ME.
It's looking 1,000 times better. Glad to see it found a caring home. |

A few years ago the Godfather listed the number per year of Mustangs built. Don't know how he did it but I cannot imagine him counting them all. Maybe they do have that list somewhere |

drcc......this boat was on this forum back in 2011. a guy was asking to see whether it was worth the price, and how much money or work there was to fixing it. He posted lots of pics, mostly of motor.

Back forum ??? Diaries? --- top of this page, right side. Searchable by year/model.
Factory production numbers might be very elusive. Member - Art Cozier could maybe pull up yours from a serial#. I could be wrong, but I don't think he is compiling #'s by year and model for totals. |

Your boat wouldn't happen be be the one that was for sale over by the York county court house ? It was identical to yours but really faded. That was awhile back. I think it was on Rt 4.

There are 19 Martiniques here in the diaries '71 - '72 - '73
There are probably many more out there that are not listed on this site. The '73 is kind of unique to it's year, due to a very slight top deck change from the 71 and 72. Woops, only 18, one of the '73's was a double. 7 - '71's 9 - '72's 2 - '73's (would be 6, including yours, 2 more in MO that I know of and 1 in ARkansas. And Joe was right. Mike T. does have one (white w/red) |

I know this is backwards to resto, but motor will be later. He goes. She got da sanded with 320. then 600, and 1000. buffed through 3m stages. Looks gooood. couldn't believe how much gel they put on back in the day. still have a few nicks, but want to keep it origanal, not to mention the cost of paint. polish all metals and new vinyl. built new wood frames for seats and side panels.

I don't know if its possible to go back in this forum, but as mentioned it was on here back in 2011. found it from google pics and could believe its the boat I bought. that chat had lots of pics on it. they looked ruffer than it really was, maybe, I got it an owner or two later.

Martiniques weren't too popular, but I'd say '73 was one of the more popular years. Dad ordered an orange and white Martinique back in '73 with a Holman Moody 351. It's current status is not in the family (at this moment, ha) but still around and a head turner., shiny as new. I'll post a pic of it when I find one.
