1950's Fleet Line "MARLIN" Vintage Toy MINIATURE BOAT with K & 0 EVINRUDE MOTOR

Description

Here is the story. This is being sold by the original owner. One of my neighbors came to my house to show me the Fleet Line boat Sea Babe he just bought.  I saw it and wanted one too. The store was within walking distance from my house so I walked down with him and bought one as well. Mine sits in a display case in my car room. I spotted the Marlin and went back the next day to buy it as well. It has always been on display. I picked the Evinrude motor because that it what my grandfather had on his boat. The Marlin was only used in small swim pond in our yard growing up. I don't think it was used for over a half hour. I put batteries in it today for the first time in decades. It ran perfect. I see my neighbor on a regular basis and he has his Sea Babe on display at his beach house. Please check out the last picture for the cost back then. The Sea Babe was .95. The canvas has a small spot on it. I am not including the batteries as I do not want them causing damage in shipping if they come loose. Both boxes are mint. The motor has a stand as you can see.
