1936 Dual Cockpit Vintage 15’ Wooden Boat “Miss Bert” Historic connection to Pasco Tri-City Kennewick areas, WA Vintage Hydroplane & Racing Boats on the Columbia River This 1936 historic wooden boat was named in the 40’s as “Miss Bert” after the original owner’s wife, Roberta. It has been passed down through 2 families, and enjoys the racing history of the Tri-City area on the Columbia River of Washington State. This has always been a fixture to the area, only used fresh water. This is a 1936 Mahogany Dual Cockpit boat built with copper rivets. The copper rivets were known to be used in custom Reinell, and other area quality built boats. The actual maker of this custom boat is unknown, but believed to be from the Puget Sound area. Mahogany was the top grade material used for the era. The side name & painting is original and vintage to this historic boat, this is not a recreation! You can tell the condition, boat has very low hours. There is no rot and all wood, seats, everything is original. Boat has always been kept on the trailer in heated garage type storage. HISTORY: In the 1970’s the boat was refitted with a newer motor and side throttle controls. The original 1937 Johnson Seahorse 22.5 HP motor was placed on a stand in the heated boat garage where it sat for decades. During the last decade, the low hours & original Johnson Seahorse 22.5 HP outboard motor was freshened up and polished and replaced onto the boat. It runs strong & fast.... I was told mid to high 30 mph ranges for the sleek & light weight boat. The Johnson outboard is a unique 2-cylinder with compression bleed off of one cylinder for easy starts. It also has a built in flush port for water hose. It turns over easily, but was drained of gas and winterized a few seasons ago. The steering wheel is active for the outboard. Boat has lived its life in the sunny & dry desert areas of Eastern WA. Sale of this vintage boat includes the original 1937 Johnson Seahorse Outboard with brass propeller. It also includes the vintage wooden trailer. Both boat and trailer are licensed and currently titled. Vintage trailer is in excellent condition and ready to tow anywhere. Boat and trailer were recently towed hundreds of miles from Tri-City areas to Seattle, WA, where it is presently garaged. TERMS OF SALE: Initial Paypal payment due upon end of auction. Balance due seller within 5 days, unless prior terms approved by seller. This is a vintage wood boat sold as-is without warranty by seller. Any vintage vehicle or boat should be inspected prior to purchase. Buyer responsible for hauling, all transport costs from Seattle, WA. Transport may be very inexpensive as posted on UShip as many travelers & small haulers can hook up the hitch behind their rig and off they go. This is a great deal as ASKING PRICE OF THIS BOAT is NOW just 1/2 of estimated value for final estate type of sale! Call with questions... I do collect cars & more :) 206-650-6100Thanks for L@@KING & Good Luck Bidding!
