Stopped by and took some pics on the way home. If only Honey Fitz could talk.
I`ll post some pics tomorrow after the show.

A 38? Rybo is there. One of the last with the flat sheer line. 1949 maybe?

Cheers,
GFS

You said woody.

I know a guy with a Chris craft mid 50 ' s mahogany runabout that only wants $300 for it but I never cared much for wood working. It would be sweet for the right person wanting a project. She needs some work but under a shelter out of the rain.

Well, my new battery case is incommunicado with my puter.
Grrr.

Seems I also have a few hundred work pics to delete from my phone.
Patience please.

The turnout was great and the boats, owners, and crew were all smiles.

Drop dead gorgeous. I have several customers who will get a link to this. Thanks from them and me.

This one I call Slacker.

Built in `99 w 3.0 merc.

When gauges lasted longer than 10 years.

Possibly the ugliest Burger ever made. Sorry, just being honest.

The trunk cabin looks original from the brochure.

The caretaker was not present, and I do not recognize the builder.
Anyone?

`62 Glasspar.

At first glance I thought this to be a fomoco sb with the distributor up front, but the owner said it was the ultra rare Buick/ Olds all aluminum 215ci that GM sold to Brittish Leyland. It was used in Rovers and some early TVR`s.

300 hp in this tiny sled.

Owner said 62 top end and I had to believe him.
He also worked for Bill Potter in `72-`73. Small world indeed.

Cheers,
GFS
