Despite the description, this is an Alwest, likely with all the wooden superstructure issues to be expected in an Alwest.
Alwests do have their good points, like greater interior volume, but there will be lots of work to do here :-)
The engines are 231 cu in Buick V6s. Parts are readily available for these. The OMC outdrives . . . . ??
BTW, this boat will not get up on a plane with these engines.

I always wonder about how accurate the brand name descriptions are.

Check out the listed weight...
Make: ALCAN
Model: 370 ALCAN CRUSING HOUSE BOAT
Year: 1970
Length: 37ft in
Beam: 12ft in
Draft: 2ft in
Weight: 5000lbs
There is also a 30' steel houseboat on the same site (Sunliner) with a listed weight of only 2500 lbs. :shock:
