1979 "The Squire Shop" Unlimited Hydroplane
Restoration

1979 Squire Shop
Unlimited Hydroplane Restoration Project

Update #28

The jig is up...

Picture
The team has made INCREDIBLE progress this past weekend, and as you can see.................we know have a basic hydroplane shape slowly taking form.

The jig is built, the frames are loaded, engine stringers are in place..........and there's plenty more on the way!

Jeff, John, Edwin, and myself were on hand early yesterday afternoon to take in the progress............so proud of these guys!

We recently acquired a piece of the drivers cowling from the crash in 1981 on lake Washington as well.........which brad Haskin is hoping to be able to splice back into the new one.
