I love classic Hydrostreams. To me, they are like classic muscle cars.

Bought the boat mid August 1975, rigged it myself in the showroom with an 80 Merc for the rest of the season. Had it ready for Labor Day weekend and it POURED rain for 3 straight days. Replaced that motor with a new 150 inline in the spring of 76.

Thanks very much for the photos Greg, that last one I've never even seen
With all the changes around home in recent years (some of the same as you are experiencing) I don't get out as much as I used to, but seeing everybody get such a kick out of this thing makes it worthwhile to keep her going. Plus, I still get the urge to lay down a good pass with her once or twice a season

Somewhere about 2001 a thread started like "who has owned their boat the longest". I said to myself "man I got this covered, ain't nobody gonna beat me", well........a guy by the name of crazyhorse on here bought his Viper in Feb. 1975, 6 months before me.
It's been KILLIN me ever since

Great looking boat, great colour. The one that didn't get away. Not too many can say that.
