I will post some more pics of the boats that have been delivered to our place from the 70-80s We have some neat pics from that era even races and old 8m films of the races. The boat in this picture belongs to a good friend of mine & is in better shape now than it came from the factory in with all the original paint & gel.

Flattie,
Was your Dad a dealer for Sanger?
Sounds like you grew up a little like I did.
Dad dragging home new boats at least once a year or more.
Back when guys wanted them custom assembled, instead of turn-key from the factory.

Must been a Bitch launching the boat, but hey when we buy new boats here in Kal-I-Fornia we drag them home. Your way saves the tires on the trailer and out here it would cost 3 times the normal amount to cross a toll bridge draging the boat this way it will save ya money
But these pictures are soooo cool, KEEP them comming.:D :D :D We be loving it.:) :)
