Wooden Boat Fix

Today we got our wooden boat fix at the annual ACBS show in Lake George Village. There were many different boats that we hadn't seen before, all of which were spectacular! What a line-up...



This is a 2020 Hacker-Craft 24 footer. It has Ilmor Marine Conversion 350, V-8 engine.


This is a very rare boat from Denmark, branded as a Coronet. It is a 1958 and notice the articulating windshield. 


A 2016 Gar Wood 28 Gentleman's racer, for sale for $180,000!


This is a bullnose Chris Craft Continental...


A shot of Golden Thunder's torpedo stern, custom built in 1998. Note the lifting planers that were added to help it get up on a plane.


A classic 21 foot Century Coronado hard top with a 413 Chrysler engine.


A 1910 Hutchinson long deck launch, about 34 ft., repowered with a modern V-8 engine...


A side shot of gorgeous Golden Thunder...


This is a Fay and Bowen launch that was freshly restored by the Tumblehome Boat Shop. Note the drake tail stern.


A 1990 James Anthony Gentleman's Runabout...


We really liked the concealed stern ladder arrangement and center facing cockpit seats on Stella Blue.


A bow shot of the Fay and Bowen Launch...


Small Wonder from Scotia NY is a beautiful owner built pilot cutter sailboat.


There were also displays on land. This early 1960's Mercury Mark 28 really caught Dave's eye.



Dave can't decide if he likes the launch or the trailer best. 😉


We still don't want to own a wooden boat, but they sure are fun to look at and admire!
