At least the 4th one from the show. An iconic beauty with a cool backstory if you’re old enough to remember the show.

Enjoy.

Of course, but I’d really like to have a few beers with Alan Hale, the Skipper…I’ve seen him in a bunch of movies and TV shows.
Seems like a fun guy.

Port holes are different from the original. Nice restoration though. Was a big fanfare with one original cast member, visiting Vancouver Island and shown on BC TV after it was launched.

From what I've read, Hale was a down to earth guy that loved folks and had a themed restaurant for awhile. Someone said he always got a little tuned up at the boatshows.

Yes he did…get tuned up. hahaha
