Check with Tiny's Fiberglass in Longview. They are supposed to be a source for old Skeeter stuff.

Looks like a Wrangler to me. That tip was put on to make the boat legal for a 150 horsepower rating.

That's what I heard...I had a ranger ask me one day what those were for...I said I don't know perhaps make it look like a mosquito. .haha.He knew that also. Does anyone know of a place to find vintage parts for skeeters? I really want to find a couple items that have been lost in the 19 years ive owned her. Planning to bring her back to life new paint and all.
Thanks for info.

Your right Allison I incorrectly said Maverick, memory is failing a bit. Thank you.
