"SCATTERED"




Mick & Co. have recently added a second Whiteley Craft to their fleet. "SCATTERED" runs a 350 and the 17ft hull is a lot lighter than "BLOWN SILLY" in construction. She came from a farmer in Dubbo who bought her from off the side of the road that runs along the Hawkesbury back in the day. Would be great to hear from anyone that recognizes her and could possibly fill us in on some of her earlier history ...Cracker boat!!! More gold on the way from this album, check out "BLOWN SILLY" for a treat in the meantime >>> aussieskiboats.blogspot-blown-silly-aka-stirrer.
Hey Mick, ...we'd love to see a pic of the two afloat side by side one day if there's any chance ;)
