Some Afternoon Fun.. It’s Time To Play… Whats That Boat?
Here it is. So what sort of classic boat is it?
While we wait for snow bound images from Paul…We got an email from fellow Woody Boater Martin Belcher.
“Any thoughts on the year, make or model? This picture was taken of the fist lake patrol boat. On Lake Wawasee Indiana.”
Thanks, Martin Belcher
the boat is a century. donated by tippecanoe boat co in 1947 to patrol lake tippecanoe. not wawasee.
Thanks! I guess that I had some bad info from others. Thanks for the point in the correct direction. See ya on the sandbar this summer.
Well.. that solves that.. Now back to snow drifts in Montana..
dang…was that a record!!!
Ha. It wasn’t a story. It was a snack. That was fast and scary that someone knew it that fast. Or at least made up something that fast. Love it
Ok, how many licks to the center of a Tootsie Pop?
The boat appears to be a 1947 Century Resorter 19.5′. It also appears to be a late production boat… (there was a stem change in mid 1947 production).
If anyone would know, it would be Tom Webb. The guy knows about every wood boat that cruised Lake Tippecanoe. I think he may have been chased by this one?
I could have outrun that old 6 banger !!
