B38 I've been looking for the Copper Kettle Bertram race boat ever since I started working for the Riggs Marine. At one time I thought I found her up in Canada. But when I showed Mel Riggs
and John Treptow the photos of the boat they both said it was not the boat. John was Mel's drive mechanic that started working for Mel when he started his business in the 70s.
If I get my hands on her I was planning on doing a full restoration. I will keep on looking.
