1973 Surfer Gt
This boat was resurrected in 2007. From a farmers field, to a father / son project.
We had no idea what this was...figured it was an "old school" PWC. I got lucky and managed to figure out the manufacturer by the letters on the hull ID. Had I known, I would have probably restored to original paint.
This is a fun little boat, running a borrowed 15 hp evenrude it scooted along nicely.
As is with trailer, it is posted on Craig's list. Just figured someone in the Bradley Gt club might be interested.

Mark,

Just wanted to thank you for all the support on picking up the Surfer GT. We made back to California on Sunday around 8:30 P.M. Just about everywhere we went the boat drew a lot of attention; interest was particularly intensive at all the National Parks we visited along the way.
I am still trying to figure out what to use to power the little boat as the options are endless. I laid out a jet drive system but think the impact on the boat would be too substantial, but still looking.

Thank you again for all the help and support, it was our pleasure to meet you.

Best Regards,
Michael

Where are the pictures of the two boats?

It is always interesting to see what skip20 has done in detail along the way, and once it's done to your liking you have a well documented build history.
