That '64 Johnson looks great. Good add with nice photos and the original brochure is pure gold! The 3-point hull design, is that an early variant of a stepped hull?
Seems it's not unique but it's certainly unusual.

funny you should say that lol
this was about a block from my shop and sat there for quite a while. The day i decided to make a deal on it it was gone lol . . . . they are kinda rare but not to hard to find. Seems a lot of people took care of them because of how unique they are, there are a few of 'em out there

Wow, I,m glad I'm not the only one to question 27 x 13 k-planes on a 24' boat. I see a lot of 22' Donzi Classics with k-planes and I just have to SMH. My 22 has small dual ram Bennetts and they are very sensitive at speed. I only see k-planes on a 22-24 foot boat as a disaster waiting to happen, especially if they move fast.

Some people think that big k-planes increase the effective running surface of the boat. They do not. Others seem to like the bling factor. Fact is, the tabs should be up out of the water most of the time. They scrub speed. I use a little port tab to keep the boat level when not running wide open. I will drop both tabs a bit in rough water to help keep the boat running flat without having to tuck the drive. My little Bennetts have been up to the task. Even these little tabs can get you in trouble though if you lower one too much at high speed. I know of two other boats like mine that run in the 90s and have stock dual ram Bennetts. Big k-planes are for big boats (IMO).
