Judging by this photo it looks like it was probably an outboard. No hole cut in the transom for a jetdrive or outdrive (unless patched over) and no log shaft pass through in the bottom. Looks like it might have had a outboard mount or jack plate bolted up where the two patches are either side of center (group of six holes on either side). Just a guess though. Also the hole cut in rear deck assuming pass through for fuel line, electrical etc for the outboard.
Didn't someone post up regarding problems switching outboard Daytonas over to jetdrives? Seem like it was due to bottom differences?

Talk about Rough!...those 1.5" stringers and gonna be rad with a "BBAnything" sitting between them!
that looks like a pretty lite layup with those stringers and it also looks like it has some reliefs in the center pod.
Those notched stringers could be a problem when trying to mount a motor in there like Todd said, they do that to get the interior low in the boat. There may be enough stringer there for a rail kit, hard to tell in the pics. The reliefs in the center sponson are nothing out of the ordinary. Could be a nice project boat for somebody, I would not be concerned about it being an outboard in the past other than the super thick transom.
