Is there another thread here somewhere, with the progress of this historical tunnel boat? thanks
The green pickle in the photo "could" be 20"(?). But, if memory serves, mine was more in the 16-17' range. Sorry, old post revisited.
Yes, good photo. T2x, It sounds like you were involved with the rotary engine development/racing. Tell us more please. What was its horsepower and so on.
Sorry to hear that. I know that waterway. Its miles & miles long. It would seem the perfect freshwater, calm water place to see what she could do. Plenty of safety boats too. Why go to the work &...
Maybe the water down there in Jupiter, will finally be the correct water for you to open up that wing & really find out what it can do? Yes? Unfortuneately I can't make it there, maybe next year...
I am still looking for a boat like the green picklefork Dutchman in Ray's photo post #125. I believe I actually owned that exact boat in the photo, which I bought in 1976. Anyone know anyone that...
Ahhhh, I thought I recognized your wing, the infamous Ted Miller wing. He lived in Boynton Beach, Fl., if I remember correctly...& owned a small marine business there...can't remember the name of...

Rick, the photo in post 125 looks exactly the same as the boat I had & definately is not the same boat, length or design, as the 20 footer in the literature you have posted. I remember, back in the...
Is the photo in post #125 not a Dutchman? If not, any idea's what, or who manufactured it? Thanks
Yes, this is the boat design that I am looking for...in Ray's post #125, the green Dutchman fiberglass 16' or 17' picklefork tunnel. Anyone have any leads on one??? Thanks
Great picture of the green picklefork Dutchman Ray! I ran around in one of these, back in about 1978, and never knew what I had. It was 16' long(?), which was rigged with a single T-1. Ran great &...
