Maiden Voyage

Well, I finally got my 1959 Crestliner in the water with my refurbished Evinrude Lark. Runs great! With me alone in the boat she does about 25-26mph which is about what I expected. All my hard work paid off!

Your hard work is going to start paying off
now that is done. Outstanding restoration.

A "Boathouse Repair" is one thats done without having tools or the skills to do it properly.

Looks like fun!…… and nice to see there’s “Ice Free” water somewhere!
Looks Great too!

Prepare to be boarded!

I knew it was too good to be true.  Spun the prop hub today. I guess that can be expected from a 60+ year old prop. Anyone know who’s re-hubbing them nowadays?

What a beauty

That’s a really neat outfit! Well done!

I’m sure it will creat a lot of interest with other boaties during your summer.
