We maintain vintage wooden boats.
Wild Duck - a 1934, 26 foot Chris Craft
Upswept
Owner/Driver - Ann Marvin
 At
our 2007
Wolfeboro
Vintage Race Boat Regatta
we ran a heat of magnificent
triple cockpit runabouts
for
our opening ceremonies. Because we had
9 triples, we sent then out in two waves with a lead
boat for each wave. Most of the kids/drivers behaved
well as we
 recreated the heritage of boat racing on
beautiful Wolfeboro Bay. As a special honor and
attraction, we had Wild Duck with us, an original
1934 Chris craft
triple cockpit runabout
owned and driven by Ann Marvin. This boat actually raced
on Back Bay in the 1930's and was driven by Nat
Goodhue for the Marvin family. Nat also owned and ran the Goodhue Hawkins Navy Yard
here in
Wolfeboro, on beautiful Lake Winnipesaukee.
