    Default Any ideas on this one?

    This is a " c stock" built by a gentleman back in the 60's and it has been recently made available to me. It has been barn kept for a # of years. Honestly I do not know alot about these but I agreed to buy it after seeing the 3 gal kiekhaefer tank('m a fan of old mercs).I could only imagine what was on the back. The builder is now disceased but his son knew alot about it and said it was a Ray Osier design, was 10' 6 " and the MK 30 was stripped to lose weight.I was hoping for a 30H but this will suffice at my first attempt at a race boatMy questions are does anyone have any history on this craft, Ray Osier, and any comments or ideas.Any and all help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance, Badfish
    Ok my pics are too big and i CANT GET THEM TO YOU YET . Help!!

    Default Ogier ??

    Do u mean Ray Ogier, from Burlington, ON?
    His CSH was 10'6" OAL, 62" OW, cockpit width 17&3/8".
    The DSH was 11'1", 67", 17&3/8".
    His boats were also built by Orsatti, as well as many home builts.
    Here is a D by Orsatti[sp?]

    Default Csh............

    This boat resembles a boat that was built down here in FL during the 60's and early 70's. They were built by Drake. Alan Drake (a nephew, I believe) used to run them, I had one that Billie Hutchins drove through the kilo and broke the CSH record at that time. The craftmanship of the boats I am talking about were not only able to handle rough water conditions, but furniture grade as far as finish. Beautiful boats.............

    Badfish, or anybody else who would like a photocopy of the Ogier sales brochure from the '60s, send me a private message with your mailing address.

    Oh boy, now I've done it! Just looked where I always kept the Ogier brochure . . . it ain't there! About a year ago, I copied a bunch of old stuff including that brochure, for John Taylor and Charlie Williams. Apparently I didn't put it all back in the usual place. I'll find it eventually, I'm sure. Ron says when I get a copy to him, he will post it. Now what did I do with it . . . .
