As for the black boat, it was made by AristoCraft in the 1960's. The model is the Funliner 17. It came as an outboard, with either this hardtop model, or an open cockpit. It's the little sister to the popular AristoCraft 19 with the sliding hardtop, the 19 being powered by an I/O. Both were great utility boats. I believe there are youtube videos of both boat models, and if you google "1959 Buick," you will find dozens of pictures of this big old boulevard cruiser; sedans, coupes, wagons, and convertibles. (My uncle had a silver '59 Buick Invicta convertible.).
