For Whitey

Hey Andy,

I came across some old school photos of the first Sea Splendour before your dad bought her. We didn't have the halftower installed until after our first season. I can't attach photos in a PM so I figured I would show them to you this way. Enjoy!

Thanks for the pics Paul. That is a trip down memory lane. That was 1 of best fishing raising boats we ever had. We almost sunk it 1 day trying to flush a 596 pound Blue Marlin over the transom.

Yeah - no transom door.
She was a good boat. Damn those 671s are a fish rasing engine!

Yeap - downtown Naptown late 1970's. Hotel on the right and yacht club on the left. We were leaving Dave Overstreet's Pipe Welders location after having the halftower installed. It was in a building right next to where the Chart House is today.
