Who made that gold No. 10 boat?
There is one here in Jax in terrible condition.

Looks like a "decked over" Allison, I would like to see more pics of both.

Dogboy, you got any pics of the one there in jax?

Thanks Dogboy...that was over a year ago. Nobody has saved it yet?
I would have thought there was an interest in an Ally tunnel. I didn't think there were that many made.
Forward the contact info to me and I will try to rescue it.

Hey Olegator,

someone must have copied yours.
it looks very similar.

i don't know how to link to an old thread.
rrr posted the original thread titled "what is this"
check it out.

Dogboy...the old thread had a tunnel in it. I think olegator is talking about a decked over vee.

Jason,
Good question, for both you and Gary.

Last May you were going to tell us about how your 15ft Ally and 1250 SuperBP ran. We're still waiting for that report. :D

Ha Ha Bruce...
Yep I am a slacker...I had to put it back in storage before I ran it (moving). Still there, but I want to run it at a classic boat show in Sep, so I need to find where I put it... :D

I dont have much time in the boat yet I just finished putting it together 2 day before Kosh

only ran 63 at the speed runs. I did get 74.5 GPS testing before we left. so I think mid to upper 70's should be easy to achieve.

Bruce- this mota runs great, thanks for sellin it

I'll see if John Dorn has some pics of it running- my pit guys were either too drunk or too busy takin pictures of girls to get any of me running.

here' a couple more pics of the set-up

Jason.....

:D :D :D Ha...If you guys think it is killing you, try being me...
Since some of us are centrally located, maybe we need to bring all these classic creatures together for a meet...just a thought.



Hey Ripper...Is it just me or have I not seen any Kosh Bikini Bash photos posted yet?
