No boat, want to build one some day but since my shop is in the basement with no way but steps out, not going to happen this week.

This is mine. Goes at 3 knots and uses 3.5 sandwiches a day.

My 1982 Chrysler Buccaneer (an 18’ sloop rigged racing day sailer named “Special Liberty” ) sank on it’s mooring during a wind storm 5 years ago and was bashed on an abandoned mooring stone someone had left on the bottom. It has been upside down on it’s trailor out back ever since.

Can’t bring myself to pay $4,000 to fix up a boat that cost me $800 used…. not when the kiddies want to go to camp this summer.

No one could touch her on a broad reach and she pointed very well too. I always wanted to class race her, and rig up a trapeez for kicks and giggles, but never had the chance.

I cry a little every time I walk past her.

-- Matt, Pine is fine, but Oak's no joke!

Nice boats!

I hope I still have this one ! Left it with my sister 4 years ago ! 2500kms away from here.

1976 ,16ft Carlson. 145hp. Shingle with a motor. Starts to Hydro plane at 62mph !Only top end IF water is calm.
Bought it from a clean freak, wouldn’t let his kids in it, sand on their feet.Every year he parked at beach and polished it (Kinda show off type) Put it in the water 2 -3 times a year all the time he owned it.

Mine is a 16’ aluminum boat with a 35 hp Merc. All I wanted was a boat with a steering wheel. It was an old DNR boat and runs about 35MPH.

Great boats folks. Thanks for posting the pictures. Keep them coming. My Dad used to have a 16 ft Crestliner with a 40 HP Mariner motor. He loved that boat and caught a lot of fish out of it. I always enjoyed going fishing with him.

These were my boats, at least for awhile way back when I was an active member of the Tonkin Bay Yacht Club ;-)

USS Chandler

USS Dehaven

USS Wabash

My first boat was a Raft I built from telephone pole. No shortening them, left them full legth. Put a rudder and steering wheel on back. We could dive off without fear of tipping sideways. I bet it is still floating in that slough back home. ! (Come to think of it , I was re-purposing back then too)
Sorry no photo…...the box camera had no film in it back then !

Ha ha ha…great one Mike. Great looking boats. What type of trailer do they use for those? :-) Thanks for your service in the Navy. My dad was a big Coast Guard guy during WWII. He was on the troop transport USS Altman, and the cutter USS Westwind. My nephew is the captain’s personal chef on the USS Stennis aircraft carrier just back from the Persian Gulf. He is glad to be home after 7 months at sea.

I was on the USS Austin (LPD-4) – it is now a reef
