"KEWGI"








KEWGI has been with Andrew's family since the 70's. Oozing of old school charm the sweet little Skicraft Deluxe runs a 350 Chev that pushes her along at a respectable 55mph. KEWGI and the gang do their thing almost every single Saturday through the summer. Beautiful boat ...and great pics too! cheers.

spotted; "KAVS"




        Bit of a coincidence ...When Kav's other Thurgar, "Another KAVS", was spotted it to was engine-less.

"SINNA II" ...Gaz & Jen's Album


Gary's classy combo from back in the day takes cool to a whole new level. SINNA II was another beautiful Mirage built by the Waldron's and was powered along by a 253. What a sweet package, though it's not Gary's first boat, we'll take a look at that one shortly ;)
                                                       Thanks for sharing these treasures gang.

random; FILAM SKI SPORT Mk II






There's been a few examples of the very rare Mk 2 popping up in the classifieds lately. These Filam's have an identical hull to the original Ski Sport but with a more modernized deck featuring those sexy hips that were inspired by the XW/XY Falcon of the same era. Always a delight to see these rare creatures. If you or someone you know owns one of these beautiful boats we would love to hear from you at >>> FILAM BOATS facebook.com
