Bob,

My "handle" came from one of my boats. It is a modified Dumas "Mucho Macho". It was put out for amusement parks, put the quarter in and run the boat. Dumas made them in 16 different metal flake colors and sold them to other companies that fitted them out and resold them. Some were single screw with a rudder and some were twin screw with no rudder. I got mine before it had been fitted out. As of today I have 8 different colors, still looking for the other 8. They were made in the early 80's so finding the rest is a challenge. I'm not a collector of them but it would be nice to have one of each. The boat had never been named and just got refered to as the "green boat".


As for the inner workings on my Tuna boat, there are none. I got the boat at a yard sale and it looks like someone had built it as a static. Thats why I'm wondering if I should get a new kit from Dumas or strip this one down and rebuild it. The hull sheeting is cracked in places, no stuffing tube, no rudder tube, wood grain showing on the superstructure and deck................
