Who now owns the old Edelbrock 527 Hallett Vector?

[DickieB]

I've been about a million miles in that boat (Backwards) in the 80's when it was new. Saw you on the river last Thursday (on the CA side) wanted to pull in and shoot the breeze but had a boatful and just couldn't do it. I understand that it went up to Washington to Dave Murry and found out it came back down here.

Tried posting a few pictures of the boat on it's maiden voyage and some from Clearlake when it was new but not smart enough to post them.........Disregard the pdf attachment below, I'm not real computer literate and don't know how to get rid of it.

I tried, I got them to upload and into an album, but they don't show when I post them.

I sold it to a great family down in SoCal ( Jefferys) who have ties to some friends a Pfaff .. They've done a bunch of stuff to it that I ccouldnt afford to do when I had it.. New trailer, new interior etc.

Its in Good hands and getting the use it deserves! Great part of my family for 25 years. After Vic owned it it went to Cliff Sharp in Arrowhead ( Brother in law) back to my brother Wayne ( 143, #9 and now Carls old 37 TT 210's , then to me)

Their plan is to restore it to its former glory

I remember being at Clear Lake when they brought that boat the first time. I was there with my cousin (Dick Colburn). Great times back then.

I know the family very well, He works for LAFD and has a place down on the parker strip across from road runner. They have done a lot of work to the boat it runs good and looks good too.
