Classic Brownie
 
My recent purchase of a Scarab brought me to this board but I see that Brownie posts here so I thought you guys might be interested in my Nova Marine Supernova 19. 1970 hull #1910 original Holman and Moody with Volvo 250 outdrive.

Currently under some restoration work. Didn't come with a windshield. I bought it from the original owner who bought from Brownie in 1970. At least thats what the last owner told me and I have no reason not to believe him.

She needs some work but she'll be really nice when she's done.

I think by interested he meant in us seeing the boat and is his way of sharing pics with us. Neat boat BTW:ernaehrung004:

It’s definitely a Brownie. Apparently one of the few that came with the devil in the back. Also has the original Holman and Moody in at too.

tried to post a picture, but it won’t let me. Apparently I don’t have enough posts yet hard to believe I went 13 years without seeing these replies.

You can look at my profile and see some pics of it

Get your post count up to ten and you will be able to post the pictures.
Sounds like a cool boat!

I hate to say it but zero progress but I’m moving to more property and close access to water. Hopefully on water next summer.

Been a very long while. How’s the race boat?

VRods twin?? That would be a sweet build. Any pics/video? VRod still around?

I am all about originality but being the windshield is missing and someone else hung the Devil on the stern if it was mine I would cut those fiberglass windshield wings down to 1\3 the height and create a molded tinted windshield or fairing.

Make it a modernized Retro Super Nova

sfg 07-03-2023 09:49 PM

Drive is original. Apparently he built 3. I bought from original owner who took the keys out of Brownies hands and he confirmed original.

The windshield I want to recreate as best I can. One of these days……

The race boat is fine.
V-Rod contacted me through the Donzi board Spring of 2021 and told me his storage site for the boat was being sold. I ended up with it in a lot of parts. Re-did the whole thing from the ground up including removing the twins for a single 454 big block. Its all in the video I posted above. That video above is about just getting the boat home through U Ship and what shows up when it gets here. You will have to go to You Tube to follow the next 50+ episodes of the rebuild. The boat is a real early John Allmand so its built just like a Nova Marine.
Got a lot of video but few pictures. Here is a couple from last year before it was finished.
