  13. John, thanks for your hard work.......great info have wanted to travel to Ski Costa Rica
  14. Whitey was a pioneer and a real character
  15. Looks likely to be carvell planked and as James W said it is usually not a good idea to glass or coat with a hard finish like epoxy unless it was designed and built that way, or you can completely encapsulate clean dry wood boat with a boat building epoxy. Cleaning, repairing rotted or cracked planks / frames may be necessary, but likely can recaulk and paint. I restored a mohogany plank on frame 59' Chriscraft with a 283 corvette engine back in the 80's, added a mohogany swim platform and pylon, was beautiful. Skied it for years, it would hold speed at 35 mph, had no wake when on plane, but the spray would leave bruises.
  16. One of my favorites also......it's best on tap at Mt. Shasta ski lodge....when snowing.....between ski runs, man cannot wait to head to Shasta
