What about the museum in Milano to preserve it ? They have the room and even though it is a American built boat it is an Italian champions old race boat.

The interest for that Cig 36' for the Museo Della Tecnica of Milan is 0.

About the ASSO it was very famous during the pre-war period in the world speed record attempts.
Looking the third pic we can note the first stern drive of the world.
It was created by the Engineer Guido Cattaneo.
I will speak about it soon in a new thread on OSO dedicated to who really invented the stern drives unit.
Surely wasn't Jim Wynne or him collegue Strang at the times in Mercury in the fifties.

MF it is located at the Abbate yard in Italy on the road between Lugano and Como just over the Swiss border coming from Lugano
It would be shame for it to be scrapped.I can't imagine Abbate wanting anything for it other than someone to haul it away.
If anything it would be cool to see restored just for viewing not for running.
Marco I can't wait to here the story about the outdrive.If you would like you can PM me the story in Italiano and I will have my girlfriend translate and i will send it back to you transcribed.Her english is excellent.

Outboard Marine Corp built a sterndrive in the 20's. It was all brass, and they showed it at the boat shows for many years. There is nothing new under the sun.
