I wanted to let everyone know that I got a new package of BRAND NEW Squire Shop merchandise coming soon, which is tailored more to the hydroplane racing fans than anything. If you want to own a 100% authentic original piece of the 1979 Squire Shop hydroplane and racing team.................these items will be exactly what you want!

I promise you........NOBODY has done anything like this ever before in the world of hydroplanes. You will have 4 options available to choose from  and each will be a VERY LIMITED EDITION...............stay tuned!

I should have these items ready and available by late June! I will post it here when they are available, as well as on our Facebook page.

I guess i should have ordered more shirts!!!

Some of the sizes have already SOLD OUT, so check out the "Marketplace" section and see what quantities are left for sale. I will update with each sale, so the numbers will be accurate as indicated.

I will order more shirts, so stay tuned!

Today is the day of the big release, as the complete Squire Shop "commemorative" button sets (1-100) are now available.

You can learn more and how to order on our "Marketplace" tab above, just select the appropriate section.

Once these items sell out, that's it!

​Get yours today!

Well gang, i finally made the jump and decided to create a Squire Shop Racing page to support this website. i will utilize the website as more of a reference tool going forward, and the Facebook page as a more "real time" outlet for Squire news.

You can find us at: Squire Shop Racing

Thanks for the tip Mr. Watkins!

Update #69 was indeed posted here, but unfortunately didn't get put in the right folder. The issue has been fixed, so it's here.

​Sorry for the error.

There has been a lot of little things getting worked on for the project, and some of it is started to show some results from all the hard work of the crew. The internal hardware is taking shape, and the wiring and plumbing will be coming soon. We contracted out some welding to be done, and what has come back so far has been outstanding. John and Steve continue their work on the hull, while Tim has been working on the engine. Brad continues to do his thing on the fiberglass components, and the rest of the crew is helping out and getting stuff done in support. Great job team!

By the way......

Do you guys remember when we got those 2 salvaged drivers cowling pieces  from Evansville a little over a year ago? Well..............thanks to Scott Raney from the u-11 team, they have been spliced back into a new cowling.

​See for yourself...

Is that cool or what?

After some early on excitement crossing paths with a deer on the way towards Indiana, Jerry finally made it back safe to Seattle this past Friday. Bob Steil was on hand at the Hydroplane & Raceboat Museum to greet Jerry upon his arrival, and Bob was impressed and pleased with the trailer we acquired for The Squire Shop.

Overall, I would rate the trailers current condition to be 9/10......so it's pretty nice and we are excited. There are a few minor things we want to "fix", but it will be a worthy trailer to this project for sure. We will need to completely go through it "inside and out" to evaluate what may need some attention, but on the surface everything looks pretty good.

Here are some close up pictures from a variety of angles.............you be the judge.
