SKIDADDLE FOUR



"Skidaddle Four" is Bryce's latest object of affection.She's a Bert Everingham of '69 vintage and apparently the very last of this timber type hull made by Everingham,power comes from a 302 Windsor...A very special boat obviously well cared for throughout the years,there was little more for Bryce to do than a quick tidy up and is now just enjoying all her lovely charms...Beautiful girl!

QUICKSILVER



Back in the '80s before his stunning Lewis Tornado,Rob used to terrorize the Forster/Tuncurry waters in this wicked little Bullet 1500 "QUICKSILVER". Partner in crime was "VILLAIN" also pictured....Rockets!!!

WET WOOD




Scotty has got a great little blog detailing his builds that timber fans ought to check out.I'll have to stir him up for updates as he was about to embark on a new build last I heard.Next craft will be similar to "SCHEMA" (above)but featuring a twin cockpit design with a laid deck and slightly shorter in length....Much admiration for your work Scotty!

A very nice US design hull that was produced by quite a few aussie manufacturers; ZD, Childsplay, Thurgar to name a few.

MOODY BLUES

gorgeous

Another of Bryce's old girls "MOODY BLUES".This little hum dinger received a similar refurbish to Bryce's GRUMPY...fussy bugger!Punch comes from a sweet 302 windsor.What is she?If you can tell us,we owe you a drink.She is none of either but appears similar in style to Camero's Farina & Meos' Hornet, I'm stumped!She looks really cute I reckon,well done mate...Will be posting Bryce's beautiful timber lady soon(and maybe a couple more of "MOODY BLUES" hopefully)..cheers

BRONCO


I was rapt when this pic of BRONCO turned up in my inbox a while back (cheers Doc) for I had admired her for many years in just the one small black & white pic(top).Ford crossflow 6 powered.If anyone knows the owner,could you please ask them to get in touch.
