| THANK YOU FOR YOUR INTEREST IN MY BOATS. EACH BOAT IS HAND MADE BY ME IN MY SHOP, FROM THE BEST MATERIALS AVAILABLE. THEY ARE NOT KITS. OR AVAILABLE AS KITS. THEY ARE RUNNING MODELS MEANT TO BE USED AT THE BEACH, POND OR POOL. I TAKE GREAT PRIDE IN EACH MODEL I BUILD. EACH BOAT TAKES APPROXIMATELY 75 PAINSTAKING, DETAIL-ORIENTED WORK HOURS TO COMPLETE. AS I HAVE RESTORED REAL ANTIQUE SPEEDBOATS, I STRIVE TO BUILD MY MODEL BOATS AS CLOSE TO THE ORIGINALS AS POSSIBLE. THEY WILL LOOK VERY AUTHENTIC ON THAT MANTLE OR OFFICE BOOKSHELF. PLUS THESE MODEL BOATS ARE POWERED BY A MOTOR, AND THE RED AND GREEN BOW LIGHT WORKS ALSO. THE HULLS ARE BUILT UP FROM MAHOGANY, GLUED AND NAILED TOGETHER WITH STAINLESS STEEL NAILS. THE DECK IS ONE PIECE OF SOLID 3/8 THICK MAHOGANY CUT TO SHAPE, SANDED AND SCRIBED TO DUPLICATE THE REAL BOATS AS CLOSE AS POSSIBLE. EACH BOAT IS THEN FINISH SANDED, PAINTED OR STAINED AND VARNISHED TO A HIGH LUSTER. THEY ARE THEN WIRED, STAMPED WITH A HULL NUMBER AND DATED, SIGNED, WATER TESTED, POLISHED AND CAREFULLY BOXED FOR DELIVERY. EACH BOAT IS PATTERNED AFTER AN EXISTING ANTIQUE CHRIS-CRAFT, HACKERCRAFT, OR GARWOOD SPEEDBOAT. THE BOWLIGHT IS MADE TO MATCH THE STYLE USED ALONG WITH THE POLISHED WINDSHIELD. ALL THE FITTINGS ARE EITHER POLISHED STAINLESS STEEL OR CHROME PLATED BRASS. A DECK MOUNTED SWITCH TURNS ON THE MOTOR AND THE BOW LIGHT. A VARNISHED STAND IS INCLUDED WITH EACH MODEL BOAT. EACH BOAT AND STAND ARE SHIPPED IN A COLORFULLY LABELED BOX WITH THE DATE AND HULL NUMBER CLEARLY STAMPED ON THE SIDE. AGAIN I APPRECIATE YOUR INTEREST IN MY BOATS. AS EACH IS BUILT TO ORDER, A PROMPT REPLAY IS APPRECIATED IN ORDER TO RESERVE ONE FOR YOU. ONLY A SET NUMBER OF EACH MODEL BOAT WILL BE BUILT! -THE BOATS ARE NOT REMOTE CONTROLLED- |
