Yes Jim we had many of the classics here, but if we had your good weather 12 months of the year I would go crazy keeping up with maintance & fuel cost. :lolhit: Here is one more pic of the Baron from back in the day...

All those years Boat never left Lake St Clair since both Countries share the lake and River system.

Pete Smith cast them with beryllium bronze, much stronger than Aluminum. Back in the day many of the racers all owned specialty shoppes that could make better parts [ exhaust, props, gimbals, & shafts than the OEM guy's, and they did.

Chip, If Bill & I don't restore her you were are first choice to contact, racing against your Dad was one of my racing highlights. There were two blue Bertram Barons on the lake but this is the SUPER MOTH.
