Look what followed me home today

[jorgeinmiami]

Drove by and the sign on it said free...well of course after much soul searching and thinking of what the wife would say I threw caution to the wind and hitched it up. Good part is that the owner came out gave me the sails and title

It's missing a few things but most of it is there

Needs a rudder and something to attach the mast to the boat..some kind of quick connect thing.

Just what I need another project.

Goes to show it not confined to Seacrafts

A great example of what our disease does to us, not to mention our wives.

Have fun with it.

Ain't it the truth? Not only did my wife go along with the old Seacraft project, but within 6 months she brings this home as a companion. It doesn't need much and will give me a chance to brush up on my glass skills.

Disease is correct, i had a lil 60s Glaspar G3 classic speed boat follow me home last fall. ������

A G3 with a 60 - 75 hp on the back would FLY in those days! Always wanted one, but as a ski boat it was tough because on a slalom you could pull it out unless there was enough hp.

I had a 1962 Barracuda speedboat, 13' long. Had a old corvette looking windshield. I hung a new Johnson 60hp with tilt & trim. Couldn't get the speedo working so had a guy in a bass boat come along side and said he would give me some speeds. We tooled along and he gave me some speeds and then I let it go until I got scared! He said when I let out of it I was doing 63 mph....at 2/3 throttle! Years later I put a small shaft 50 on it and actually used it a lot. I love old boats, cars and trucks!

Good find, it will be loads of fun! If you go to the Dwyer Mast website they will have most of your rigging needs including the tabernacle that your missing. I might even have a spare rudder and tiller that I could send you. Good luck with the project.

That's like seeing a box with a free puppy in it, how do you not take it?
