It was so neat today to look over my thread from the beginning.
Still have the boat, but hasn't been in the water for 2 years. It needs some paint and seam filler. Engine needs to be loved on as well. Salt bilge with loose stuffing box& leaking raw water pump is a trouble maker on a white painted engine. Lack of use kills everything as well. Daniel

Thanks for the update, Daniel. 100% on a sitting boat is a bad thing.

Kinda thinking of building a light version of this boat,
just to see how much more speed I can get from it. Or build a Maryland "dovetail" or also called draketail to put the atomic in. Long and way narrow.

Draketails are very rare here, and they always draw a crowd wherever they're tied up. Very special boats!
For the uninformed, search on Hooper Island draketails. Bill Last edited by Administrator; 02-22-2020 at 07:18 PM. |

They are neat, and very few remain.
