We had a 74 Salty Dog for several years befor getting our 34'
Uniflite.Somtimes I miss the Salty Dog.I think the hulls are bullet proof
and you have alot to work with.When we first got it we repowerd with fuel
injected 350 crusaders and it was a pleasure for sure.Very stable and strong
boats.A careful inspection should find any problems but in most cases they
are hard to hurt.

Subject: [UnifliteWorld] Considering a '72 Salty Dog - are hulls as good as
advertised?
Found a 1972 Uniflite Salty Dog. Boat is on the water up and
running. Had engines replace in the mid-90's. These older Uniflite
hulls (pre-blister) seem to have great reputations. Just wondering if
they are as good as advertised? I've tried but google just can't find
anyone complaining about bad stringers, transoms, decks on these old
Uniflites. Lots of praise but not a lot of people talking about
problems with them. Just wondering if one of these old hulls is a
'sure thing' in this world where you never really know what issues a
boat's hull has until after you have handed over the cheque. I love
the looks and the reputation and if they are as stable as advertised
I'm sure my wife will love it as well. I don't mind an older boat so
long as the foundation (i.e. hull, stringers, transom, floors) were
built to last originally and still are in good condition.
Thanks
