Saw this boat online up in Lake George, NY about 3 years ago, called the seller who said it had not been in the water for about 10 years. Took a car carrier on a snowy Feb day and 5 hrs later it was on its way home. After getting it back to the garage, a battery and a toggle switch was all it needed to run! Cleaned it up and did the normal servicing and it ran great all summer. Last winter I totally restored the interior including new skins from Christine’s Enterprises. This winter it was time for engine mods, GT-40s, intake, timing chain, rockers, and carb rebuild. It has been a great project and a GREAT boat
