It’s a 195? 12’ wooden runabout, I can not figure out the make, so any suggestion are welcome...
Small runabouts still appeal to me. From just a few years back, here's one in Wolfeboro's Back Bay:



Your boat could have been made from wood-boat plans featured in Popular Mechanics magazine.

New wood runabouts are still factory-manufactured today.

Back when I built my three wood boats, I came across Popular Mechanics magazine plans for a 10-foot runabout—especially since a 12-footer was "too much boat" for the budget. Still intrigued, I've kept the plans I bought back then. The plans are still available, and are cheaper today!
