I live in a small lake town, half way between Albuquerque and El Paso. Our lake, Elephant Butte State Park, is the closest lake to either town, about 140 miles from either. As a result, there are lot storage facilities here. Some have been around for decades and there are few old boats setting in them. Thought you guys would enjoy seeing a few of them.

Brings back memories. I was stationed at Kirtland AFB in Albuquerque from 77-80 and we went to Elephant Butte several times.
Big catfish longline area I think we were up at north end if I recall.
The people we stayed with owned a "marina" in Albuquerque and sold Dorsett boats. Coming from Seattle area to me marina meant waterfront, haha.
What a beautiful area.
There have been some neat boats found in NM, some Power Cat boats and Dorsett boats from memory.

'78 and '79, I worked for the big Johnson/OMC dealer in Albuquerque, Duke City Marine. The owner, Charlie, had a cabin at the north end of Elephant Butte. At Three Sisters, I believe. Don't remember him having Dorsetts at that time, but do remember Glastrons, Newmans, and Wellcraft.

Shake,
There is the same Glastron cruiser on Chicago Craigslist now for $1,500. Been there a while.
