This boat is up for auction but I've never seen anything so pristine, this old. Check this box to be notified of replies to this topic. Note: BBcode and smileys are still usable.

That's right up the road from me! Rawhide is a charity group run by Bart Starr. They have kids who have had some troubles work there and learn skills. People donate cars and boats and the kids clean them up, repair some things and then auction them for $$ to keep the program running.
Good group with a good cause.

Oh, and nice boat!

Pretty much on a first name basis with them. Been going to their auctions since the early 80's when they only had about 10 cars to get rid of

and some old boats. Still kick myself in '83 they had a Ford cammer that went for $1200. and it ran. Shuda-cudda

That was before dealers put a stop to their auctions 'cuz they claimed it took business away, watta joke that was.
The place sure has grown. Feb was the last time I was there.

Just a few of the gems I bought from them in the last few years.
