IDK, but it went swimming for a while. Skaters have a balsa core and are known for having moisture and delam issues, I would be concerned long term knowing it went under. Just my 2 cents.

Timeless?
All Hands on Deck,
I find it interesting that after all this time that Design, and Graphic execution has stood the test of time so well.
Harold really gets all the credit. He did a great job of interpreting my ideas and thoughts. Everyone, and I mean "EVERYONE" pooh pooed my idea to paint a boat fading from White to Red. No one said it could be done and look good. But it was Harold at Grafix Works who came up with the idea of Yellow-Orange in the transition not Pink, and that's what really made it work. The rest was my input. Especially starting the striping from top to bottom as opposed to the Bottom to top theme so popular today
I wish the new Buyer well. and Good Luck to the Seller.
Best,
rob..

Jack,
Since you mentioned it here's one from Lake Erie.
Pretty sure this was after we arrived back from an overnight in Windsor. Dutifully "spanking" a blower Donzi on the way back who gave up trying to hang with us shortly after leaving the Detroit River on the way back to PIB.
Donzi boy was spotted idling in about 30 mins "after" we had tied up.

One of my favorites,
Because of the angle & aerobatic "contortions" the Pilot and the Photographer had to go through to pull it off.

"Rob what is the significance of the name "Rice Hauler" both as the name of the boat and your screen name?"
Good Question since I don't recall us meeting.
But if we had you'd probably "get it" pretty quick.
Maybe these pics will help you figure it out.

p.s. Tank, Just like always, I've been thinking & working towards the "next one". And like companions,They just keep getting better, prettier, faster, safer....etc. And you always want that "newer model" So when the "next one" happens. You'll see and Then we'll all get to Key West together. best, rob..
