Looks very original. Is that a rotating drive like on Bob Covington's 16?

Owner is asking $6,500 (from the ad).

I remember the boat well as it was a big part in identifying changes made during the years of production of the 16.

the two tone color scheme is a bit early for a 66 .

I notices it doesn't have the corner hatch latches, just a center mounted latch. It also has the vent under the rear seat along with the rear vent.
