That`s the boat, like I said it was beautiful, no rub rail etc. Transom was sooty because of the supercharged motors we were running, They just weren`t quite ready for Offshore. That was probably the only set that Kiekhaefer ver built, wish I had some engine room pictures, a good piece of history.

So what happened to the 28 ' mold in OZ.
I would of thought that there would have been more boats if there was a mold in town?

I remember the cat, designed by DeFina I think, it had too much choke in the tunnel and drove the bow in or so Kevin Mc told me.
Whta has happened to Stefans mono?
