Ug, the mess!!

Julie thought I was crazy for buying it! She's probably right. I believe it was an x-Flying Boatmen boat (from knoxville). They were a bunch of x-pilots who did intricate formations in these little things on the river in TN back in the day. My boat was originally named the "Martha Sue", and apparently suffered a head on collission at some point. I can see how, if you've ever seen a video of the flying boatmen perform! it's cool!

Anyway, the colission damaged the bow. I've since repaired the nose piece and replaced the rusty screws with rivets. Here's some more pics of the mayhem...
