Hello Jeb,

Dude, can you post some Banana Pictures?

I am like the only Banana guy on this whole board it seems and your the unofficial leader since your the 1993 World Banana Champ...

How can I get in contact with Mr. Paul Barros? I always been a huge fan of BRT and would really enjoy speaking with Mr. Barros. Thanks a lot in advance,

Jim

A friend looked at that one.

Needs cosmetic help.

It doesn't have a rub rail...

Fobes, Found the pic's of the BRT's I had told you about awhile back! Too many to scan, PM me an address & I'll send them to you. Dave B.

No expense spaired. 82 MPH on GPS. Exclusively maintained by MDG Performance Marine in Edgewater Maryland. Check out the pictures

Sorry to bring up a old thread, but my father build the BRT boats with Paul. My dads name is Bruce Almeida, hes a master fiberglass man. He built them in the 80's. I had a picture somewhere with him and paul standing near the 24' still on the lowboy boat cart. its a red and black hull. Anyone have contact info to paul? My father would love to talk to him im sure, its been a very very long time he has seen him. my email is mustangforever ( at ) comcast .net

730,
Welcome to OSO. There use to be a red BRT in the Toms River NJ area, it was a great looking boat. What ever happened to the molds?

Re: BRT Boats
 

Ya but the McCarthy's are building them again :D

Re: BRT Boats
 

Paul is in Ft.Lauderdale last I knew w/ a 24ft. red BRT. Your dad prepped a Pantera for us to paint a while back.

Re: BRT Boats
 

Thx for the replies. My dad remembers the pantera, MarineTrans.

As for the molds, supposibly the 24's are in cape cod area, somewhere. I do know these molds get passed around and are being produced by other companies. Ironicly i believe the BRT were made from other companies molds, just altered. But i know yous knew that :D.


I do know where a 27 footer mold is. Needs some fixing to be worthy, but i dont think my dad has spoken to him in a while, not sure if he still has the mold. It sat outside last i knew when i was a little guy.
