Hi Jack,

Check out the Arkansas Traveler section in the library. The '58 brochure shows a finned aluminum model witha fiberglass deck. Post some pics. I love alumiglassics.

Thanks for the reply Classicfins,
My boat must be a 1958 DUT-15
acording to that brochure. I will
definatly get some pics in the am.

I just added 1954 to 1959 model information for Arkansas Traveler to the Glassic library. The DUT-15 was made in 1959 as well, though I cannot say whether this particular model was substantially changed or not. Hopefully someone soon will come up with a 1959 Arkansas Traveler brochure.

Hello once again
I got a few pictures this morning but need to learn
how to upload them. I did find a tag with the model
number and it states that the serial number is at the
stern end on the starboard side. It is a DUT-15 but
still looking to date it.
I tore out all the wood floors and carpet that was
glued to the insides. Will post more pics if this
works. Jack in AZ

Lets see if I can get a photo of the back.

thats i fine looking boat. welcome to the site.

Update,I found the serial number on the srarboard side
of the stern,go figure,right where the ID tag said it
would be.Anyways it is a DUT-15 and the serial number is
8 122. If anyone can help me date this rig it would be
greatly appreciated.
Thanks , Jack in AZ

That is a SWEET boat!!!!
