Sorry too, I really just think people are missing out on something, something important and big and the cost is nothing (for now) compared to other collectibles. After buying it I don't have 25 grand in mine over 6 years. It's an ACBS winner. I do everything myself but still...
I cant believe that some of the more wealthier members haven't snatched them up and dropped what they spend on greens fees for a year into one and have a show piece that gets them front and center at any rally, boat show or gathering and even car shows at will. Take Banana's boat. 30 grand to get it floating again (in the U.S)? Lot of bang for the buck. 30 grand in a car and you wont even get closer parking in the parking lot of a show. His boat with 30 grand spent wisely and it will be in the show front and center if he wants.

Just a bit partial to the race boats. Without them most of the production boats would not exist today and yet they are treated like red headed step children for many reasons listed. Just kills me.

& as you know when there finished it's very rewarding. . As far as restoring old race boats Anaconda race with the same name for many years, Short Circuit raced for 30+ years & the white Pantera raced as CT Pepers, Alterations & Bee Haven.
