2004.
The hull and all hardware are original Lloyd, with his stampings on several of the hardware castings. The boat never competed (according to the limited history I could gather from reliable sources). It was built as a 150 hydro Seldom Seen A-50 and wound up in Miami in the mid 60s. Since there is no reportable history, I will restore it as mcknightmare's return S-30 after my best and favorite hydro mcknightmare Y-30. That was an 850cc Sooy with a Sunbeam Imp that I raced from 1973 thru 1979 in Regions 3 and 4. |
