24 Banana
The 24 in post #61 used to be mine. I bought it out of Lake Texoma, it had a 496 ci. Gale Banks twin turbo engine with a number 3 speedmaster on it. It would run in the mid 90's. Sold it to a guy [Butch} in Pittsburgh without the big power but sold him a 330 and TRS set up for it. It was a black sided white deck and bottom boat and was named "and Faster Horses" He did the formula theme paint job on I still see him around Erie PA. with it. John M.

The Banana in post #6 was mine back in the early nineties, this boat sank in Hurricane Hugo in 1989 off the Florida coast. The boat was then shipped back to Cranston R.I. to Port Edgewood. I bought it off of Port Edgewood, it was nothing but a shell, no motor, no interior, no seats and the wiring was all shot. I did all the exterior bodywork, then painted it white, it was black. I found some red seats out of a Checkmate Convincer in New Hampshire, and then powered it with a Evinrude 225. I sold it a year or two later. We now own the Banana in post #40, the "Banana Daiquiri", this boat is a 1977 and the HIN # BCV00197040 I hope this helps. Stephen

I have a 2006, hull number 102, (BCV21402D006). From what I understand, it is possibly the last Port Edgewood boat made. Its still incomplete, as it is a hull, deck and some parts. I have not had time to start this project yet but it is coming. I made it out to the boat the other day, and dug out the bundles of teak trim. It is all brand new, warped up and in beautiful shape. The boat also came with a 110gal fuel tank, as I believe that it was going to be built as an outboard powered boat. I have not made my mind as to what type of power I am going with.
pretty much how she sits for the time being.
