The first picture was the day I found my 23' at a marine engine dealer in 1984. The hull had never seen a trailer or had bottom paint as it had been kept on davits. I could not pass it up. I paid $7,000 for the hull & 1979 200HP Johnson the next day.
The 2nd next picture was the teak rocket launcher I constructed over the original splashwell. It also helped with the engine noise from that old Johnson.
The 3rd picture was taken the day I was back from getting my T-Top installed by Birdsall in 1985. First, I had to remove the windshield and grab rail and build the custom radio box out of black walnut wood.
The last picture is of my first Car circa 1952. Notice how excited I was with the low rail, wood trim helm seat & custom wheel & hub caps! That was my introduction to the "Gucci" touch as I think it might have been Green in color. I had the same excitement when I scored my first SeaCraft. Anyone recognize the make & model ?
