Saw that last night. Looks rough. Cool if you want a loooong project, though.

Now that is a trip. A shovelnose from the sixties, flat as they come.

Somebody inch that motor forward...
I think you'd need to be one quirky mofo to invest the fifty large it would take to restore it.
Wait a minute! The boat's in Wisconsin and is set up for a Ford. Somebody tell Blown472, as I hear he landed quite the job. :D

Been on ebay quite a few times and posted on one of the boards for the past couple of years

I got "Hydro Pa????"

[Fiat48]

I was hoping maybe someone into hydro's in the old days might tell us about it.
I was wondering..maybe Hydro Phobia?

[Schiada76]

It's somebody's Frankenstein!!!!! A flat with some hydro pods laminated onto it. :2purples:

[Fiat48]

The more I look..the more it looks like those pics are not right. 424 boat is a different boat from what I can tell. I sent email for pictures of when boat was first done.

[Some Kind Of Monster]

I agree. I think it says "Hydro Phobia"

[sixgunsam]

i agree, those pictures are not of the same boat.

EBAY......I won't deal there.. To many CROOKS.............

The #424 boat, looks like an early Howard....I have a 70 Howard Shovelnose sitting on the side of the house, looks identical... :cool: :cool: :cool:
