I only asked because there is one for sale close to where I live, very rough shape and looked very old. I never heard of this manufacturer in all my years of boating, boat shows and being on and around Lake Erie. Thanks for the answer and I am glad I was able to give a few of the readers a chance to take a few minutes to make light of the fact that I never heard of them. If I had not asked I would not have bought the boat!

Congrats, how about some pics!

I have been told that I needed to upgrade my membership to post pics so I will be doing that soon. I did post the pre purchase photos on the site under members boats or photos I think. Here is the URL http://www.offshoreonly.com/gallery/...=chip&cat=3071 They are on the first page of the photos page. I just posted them today. I have a major winter project ahead of me! But I can only afford to buy a boat like this and put my knowledge and hard work into it to make it what I couldn't afford to buy already nice. it will be an awesome boat when I am done. Thanks for the like. By the way, my Brother and sister in Laws lives in Almont. I may be in Lake Orien by Christmas. Job transfer.

Small world, I just purchased a 43'BT that needs work. Its the only way we could ever get one. We bought it from the original owners, by coincidence, that also live in Almont. Good luck with your new boat!

Which 99 43 did you buy?

JohnAT 10-09-2014 05:36 AM

It's the one that was in Muskegon Mi. Has a checkerboard with yellow stripes paint job, I have derigged it and is getting a new transom. Can't wait to get it back home and start putting it back together.
