Scotty - Page 3
Scotty - 1929 John Hacker designed Gold Cup hydroplane - owned by Mark Howard
On Saturday, May 29th we launched "Scotty" for the 2004 season.
Once launched, we quickly paddled "Scotty" to her boathouse stall.
We then attached Scotty's slings and lifted the hull just a titch - to let her swell.
Then it was Showtime - Jim Kondrat jumped in and fired the Packard Gold Cup motor. The sound in the boathouse was pure magic.
With our ears still ringing, a few handshakes and great celebration.
Stay tuned for more project details and photos, and please stop by and join our Saturday Morning Gatherings.
