Welcome to my Web site!


This is how I found the project boat that is featured in this web
site.
It was sitting in the weeds, a cover in tattered pieces making a
futile attempt at covering the boat. The owner put a new battery in, added a water hookup
to the sterndrive and it fired first try - A very good sign. It was tempered by the strong
smell of gasoline permeating throughout the boat. In my naivete I thought it might have
been from adding gas to get the boat started. As I came to learn later the fuel tank was
rusted through in several places
Above is a picture of the name plate from the side of our hull

Here is a scan of an for the boat company that built our boat. It is from a recent
issue of "Hot Boat" magazine, covering the history of the 'Hot Boat'.
