O/T Is there a HAMB for old boats?

I'm thinking about building a flathead Ford for an old boat, is there a message board like the HAMB but for old boats and the like?

What's wrong with this one, sounds traditional to me?

 

We love wood boats!!.........OLDBEET

 

Here's a good forum for speed boats old and new......... you'll probably want to go to the V-drive section....

Say, there is a Halibrand V-drive box on E-bay too that'd be perfect....

No idea on sites but I did post this on an aero-powered hot rod
thread.

 

Thanks for the info guys. Great picture Ramblur!!! I just happen to be lucky enough to buy a complete flathead with all the marine stuff on it and now need a place to put it. LOL

Yup, it's called the HAMB...HOKEY ASS MOTOR BOATS!!-MIKE

 

hey what's flat black, primer red, and has white walls? that's right! it's my boat....

 

Just need red wheels and you're there!

haha! it even came with a flattie!

 

Thanks for that hot boat site,i'd never checked it out before(to busy looking at the HAMB).I was very involved in the sport as a crewmember,for many years.Our last boat,was a very well known Cole T/A hydro,by the name of "Airtime".A previous owner(Jim Epler) won the world finals with it,before he went on to be the 1rst 300 mph funny car in NHRA.Our team also had success with it winning 7 of 8 races in one season.

 

Rev Grimm13 on the Killbillet board has a 73 Caddy.....barge...Thinks its a Rat Rod..........Does that count?

 

He's on here too.

 

He can take a joke...............................

 

this is my super dooper rare 1962 Sealander. No trailer required.

 

doesnt qualify ...i think its an airplane because he claims it flys.

 

You know it Ponch...You ugly mug..

 

It's actually a low flying asshole seeking missile,and it just honed in on your location..

 

Took ya long enough to get back...............

Love the old wooden boats....

 

build it, make it a flat six ford, be different, dress it up with nice stuff.

here is a knudsen boat set up, look up art maynard, he had one of the fastest division 2 hydroplane boats in the early 50's. he used a 226 ford six, and whipped a lot of flat 8's.
