Originally designed by Monty O'Shea who earlier had designed the Dodge yacht Delphine, this boat is a rare and mint condition round sterned runabout which was profiled and immortalized in Bob Speltz's "The Real Runabouts" as a one of a kind. Dashboard is a solid 4x8 piece of solid mahogany and the engines are 2 Chrysler Hemi 350's with four 2 barrel carbs, oversized pistons with a high liftcam. Changes in the hull design allow for a top speed to be achieved of about 70 MPH. The rudder is mounted under the front deck for better, safer steering and handling in rough water and at top speed. This boat was created to run against the Gar Wood boats in the famous Detroit races.
