Most likely Boatme's old boat. Might have had Port of St. Louis on the transom. It was at Anchor Marine for awhile. Currently the only Vice Edition in the Loto area that I'm aware of.
Unfortunately no pics. My phone was connected to the stereo for our jams.

There were six used in the show. Two from each model year over four seasons.
86 season 2, 87 seasons 3/4 and 88 season 5.
There was a promo boat in season 2 that was done with an edition hull stripe that had camera mounts, but was never seen on screen. They used it for photo shoots and promotion. Don was given a loaner for each model year. I believe his first loaner was the promo boat, but have yet to be able to confirm it.
There were 33 Special Edition boats, for a total of 42 boats that had Vice related paint.
There was a Vice Edition on Minnetonka as late as 94.
The boat was repainted shortly after, changed hands a couple times and recently resurfaced for sale in Illinois.
Some where along the line, the arch was removed

One of the fans of our fb page dressed his kid up for Halloween as Crockett and converted his stroller into a KV with cardboard and colored duct tape
A trailer with a set of wheels like that stroller would have come in real handy Saturday night..............................LOL

Thanks Roger
Sorry you had to see the disaster on the truck side. Looks like a bomb went off on that end lol
Too many half completed projects waiting on parts that were shipped wrong

Roger and Mark stopped into the shop Saturday while we were shuffling boats around.
The tractor I need to wiggle the center boat in, decided it didn't want to participate.
Roger is living proof that 10-12 people and a floor jack can move a 38' boat and triaxle trailer around and push the tongue sideways into position.
They came for a visit and got put to work lol
Thanks again for the help
