BRIAN'S ALBUM; "The EGYPTIAN"



Brian's old insta-matic could barely keep up with 'The EGYPTIAN' in these shots taken from the banks of the Bundaburrah Creek just outside of Forbes NSW where Barry Judd had his factory back in 1977 / 78.
Brian has fond memories of skiing in this area back in the day behind a brothers old Hammond named 'APOLLO' which he would dearly love to locate. Other local boats of friends back then were; 2x Juddcraft's 'WILDFIRE' & 'INSANITY' along with an Everingham called 'MISS TOAD'.Has anyone seen or heard of them ???
Cool pics mate, cheers for sharing. Brian's mint 1600 SO coming up!

      Dear Carly,
      I have just reviewed this site and noticed your reply. I grew up in Parkes and there was a family there who operated a transport business (Herbie Hoy) who owed a beautiful Hammond ski boat.
      My brother David also owned a Hammond called 'Apollo' and I am keen to locate a Hammond for sale. I would love to find Apollo (last sold in Gladstone), but that is proving impossible to date.
      Any info you may have would be appreciated.
      Kind regards
      Brian Carey
