I;'ve looked at that site before and it's really interesting to see
how hulls have evolved with styles over time. some of those boats are
really wacky, like the green one that looks like some 50's cold war
get with Pontiac tail lights. Not only so, but the really wierd ones
with the headlights.

Fins, man, think FINS!

Something for everyone.

Haha!
My dad had a '60 Chevy, I think it was a Biscayne, with the sideways fins?
We kids thought it was the coolest car (this was around '70) cause the
Batmobile had fins!

Yes it's amazing how the 50's jet and 60's space age effected styling
in about every form of transportation. I don't think it worked very
good on farm tractors though...
