Restored and operational. Very nice!


In the 50s they were virtually giving these things away. They were
being sold at auction and most went for the scrap iron price of the
engines.
When you see what is there in the restoration gallery of pictures you
do get an idea of how hard it is to keep a wood boat alive.
