This looks like the wing that until a couple of years ago was bolted on top of a post in front of a marina in fla with a couple of 6 cyl stacker mercs on the back.

I saw that boat on S&F thread "Wing on a Stick" . Cool racing history, but it was on top of a sign since 1973.

There is a good article on the Switzer boats in Iron Fist,the book on Carl Kiekhaefer They were made in Crystal Lake Ill. and there are a few still around,and I think they have their own club.
