well if i had a choice of what one i had it would have to be the skeeter bass boat. those are really cool. im gald to hear that some one is trying to start reproducing some of the boats. what happend to all of the molds for the hulls. What does that guy who bought the molds plan to do, is he ever going to actually start bulding them again
well the molds that where used here in the US at intentional hobbies where destroyed they where the metal vacuum form molds . Garry Conley { the guy that makes the small Conley v-8's
http://www.conleyprecision.com/ } was working on a deal in 1993 to obtain them but a company that rick van v owed money to desron them because they where pis st of at him .. well to make long story short . a guy named Tony R in texas got allot of stuff from Bob Agnew father in the UK in the late 90's Mr Agnew had his original mold makers make some new molds of some of the hulls . well tony R never full got AMPS off the ground and he sold off some of the stuff he had . that's how i got all the tooling for the 1/4 tunnel hull and the gas outboard stuff .. well fast forward to the beginning of 2010 and i drove my VW jetta out to Texas and stuft that small car [X(]with all of molds / plans/ and tolling that Mr.Agnew had sent him and drove back to Florida with it
the good thing is that Bob has alot of the boat molds that were produced in the UK
i hope he will bring the ones he has back out one day
and a good thing for you is that i have the molds for the 175 skeeter bass boat
so soon i will start to make them [8D]
sweet, im glad that these awesome molds are in good hands. i might have to buy one of those skeeter bass boats from ya when you start making them. lol that car was loaded with stuff. i bet you were extra careful driving back.
