QUESTION: WHAT DO YOU WANT TO DO WITH IT??? I was looking at it the other day, thinking that splitting it in half and adding an 18-24 inch tunnel would make a cute little boat...She is really took narrow for real use...she likes to turn "TURTLE"...Ran pretty damn good with a MODEL 80 is 20 SS Runabout..in rough water she ran like an ARROW!!!

Let me know your plans I could steer you to this one, maybe...

ADD: I was wondering how this TOMMY IGE (Pronounced E Gay) would run with a Fat "C" Motor on it...shw would be a legal 1100 Runabout, you could run two in the boat and go fast enough with a two cyclinder to scare **** of of you, and add and three holer.....she's be a reall kick...add a roll cage like Sport C/Tri Hulls...

i have a yamato 302 that im wanting to run on something i thought it might be fun on this boat , but not sure , so would you part with your yamato boat or is it a future tunnel boat? that sounds interesting, let me know and thanks.:D what does turn turtle mean ? upside down or what? im not a racer but iam a river rat that has had many boats and still have a fever for them, you can never have enough boats.

She is like a canoe...lean to the left too far and she keeps going....

Where are you located??? Might be some better river raockets around...maybe I could help....

im in bethel island california , still sounds like fun , i would like to try it . or buy it. hey it could happen.:D

[Ron Hill]

I might make you a deal on a Fat "C" I have....and take your 302 in on trade...

How much BREAD" you got to spend???

I have the pickle forks made, I have all the hardware...propleers and several motors...

I bought the boat and trailer from Lynn Williams in Yuma, but have no title to the trailer or boat....

Let's make a deal!!! You'd have a boat you could run awaywhere up your way!!!

got any old fiberglass hydroplanes shovel nose small 10 to 12 ft , i dont know who made them but they looked like a sanger only smaller , got one , not really interested in the c boat , but your yamato maybe , you just got rid of a yamato a few months ago, motor that is , so does that yamato boat hold any memorys or are you willing to part with it? maybe we could trade for things , i have to look in my garage and see what i got .:rolleyes:

I saw the Yamato Boat at Joey Cucci's at Havasu, last week...as I was leaving. Joey has a super new shop and he's busy as hell...He drives the GN, Body Snatcher for Ted Kolby, too...I just didn't want to lose track of the hull, as it has some interesting strakes on the bottom, it use to ride cool...She wouldn't pull my brother on a water ski...But JT Snow and Bunker use to cruise up and down the Colorado River for hours in Tommy Ige's hull....They'd run up river until they ran out of gas, then they'd fill the tank from a 5 gallon can, and head up river again...they'd drive all day and never get out of sight..JT Snow who played first base for San Fransisco...This was back when JT's dad, the late Jack Snow, played for the Rams and lived next door to my brother....
