Owens, Cutter and Larson were owned by Brusnwick in the 1960-1963 time period. Your boat looks like and Ownes or Cutter. "Brunswick Boats" may have been the name applied to some of 'em.

It was a financial disaster for Brunswick. They paid something like $3 million for Larson Boat Works in 1960 and they sold it back to Paul Larson and some other investors in 1963 for about $300,000. The Brunswick bean counters came in soon after the purchase of Larson and destoyed the company.

Silverline was not associated or affilited with Brunswick. The company name was originally Morehead Plastics, Inc. which made SIlverline fiberglass boats. I think they started in 1959 or 1960. The company name was changed to Silverline, Inc. about 1968. About 1971 the company was purchased by Arctic Enterprises, the maker of Artic Cat snowmobiles.

Artic Enterprises was eventually gobbled up by Irwin Jacobs in the 1970s. The Silverline boat operation was closed at Morehead in 1980. The line continued to be built for a few years at another Irwin Jacobs' owned boat plant, Larson in Little Falls, MN.

Crestliner became part of Brunswick about 6 years ago. Prior to that they were part of Genmar (Irwin Jacobs).

Silverline was never part of Brunswick.
