My dad and his dad loved these boats. My late dad had a 75 horse Merc on his. Took it to Minnesota every summer

Imagine having that boat on a fully restored 1940 boat trailer, with a fully restored 1940 car at the front. The stuff dreams are made of!

Stunning

Nice barrel. When you bung, are you supposed to keep the grain of bung in same direction, or not ? What do you use to adhere your bung. Glue or ???? Wood glue, or Elmer's white...

[@MikeGreenStudioWorks]

Yes, we put the bung in with the grain, and we use Tightbond 3 to glue them in.

I have a 1940 CC 17" racing boat (Fred) that also is a tumblehome transom. Stain, not paint like most racing boats produced. Blue gauges, West bottom. White stripes, tho. 155 HP 3 carb KBL. Still a 6 volt. Wish it had the orange stripes! Great design feature. Did you go 5200 on yours?
