Found a couple of pix on page 41 of the June 86 HVWs. The original
was created by a Mr. Liptak; in the photos it's on top of a
23-window. The article sez a Rick Shine, who would reportedly be
replicating the thing, was at a "Winter Meet" at
the Puyallup Fairgrounds in Seattle (3/86). It also mentions an
article on the boat in the 11/85 "Transporter Talk" column (don't
have that one).
I think I remember seeing a fuller spread somewhere. Maybe some of
you listers are more anal than me? Dig thru them back ish's, gang!
