I knew that
Man you had that Mod 90 COOKIN"
Like I said - you and Bill and Beale ought to pick a spot to have an OPC regatta for the boats! It ought to be a BLAST.
Somebody may even show up with pics of MY boat

Next summer in Clayton NY, there is the biannual Antique Raceboat Regatta. It would be a good place to have a get together of old OPC stuff & racers. Jim Hunt, Kenny Kitson and Rich Luhrs showed up in 2004.
Since 1925, about 150 different racing outboards have been made.
Excellent idea Sam!
Ray,
I just spoke with a fellow from BRF...he goes by "DaveS". He will build you a short shaft motor and is located in the Salisbury MD area. I have his telephone number and I plan to have him put something together for me. I thought about you on this. Ill email you his telephone number if you like. Just let me know if you are interested.

Sam, thanks for posting E&T pictures, hope this is your boat. These are two pictures of boats I just purchased last week. The first is the 15 foot round deck E&T tunnel ( red, white, and blue) I have been looking for. Beale Tilton says this is the last boat they built in 1974. The second boat is 1984 16 foot 7 inch Herring brand SST120 wooden boat. I plan to restorse both boats next year.
Ray
No, Ray I don't think that is my boat. Mine looks like it was made round nosed and sawed off. My deck does not taper down at the front ... just straight up and down flat between the deck and bottom for about 5 inches at the front
That Herring is beautiful ... sleek like a Greyhound (dog not bus)
Congratulations on such a beautiful find!

Herring looks awsome, please post some pictures when you finish it.
