Dan Tegman set the boat up I think he goes by the name “tunnel vision “ on the site.

Great Find and Story...


Years ago when we were kids we use to ride our bikes over to Sleek Craft and Wriedt Boats to look at the eye candy. I'm sure glad we didn't grow up in the video game era...

I know exactly who rigged that boat, I did! it was mine originally as a jet, I converted it over to an outboard and painted it, built the jack plate and trailer too...

Hey Dan
Glad you found the post was going to look you up and tell you that I got it back.
Plan is to install a 300XS

That will work well with her, the SST was a little heavy. Back in 1987 the Bridgeport was as big as I could get. Man it sure looks good! Still the original paint on the trailer?

Still same flawless....I always use a big mud flap on the truck as did the guy I sold it to. And no salt water.
The last owner used 10 times never beached, stored inside, etc.
Boat is inside my Havasu garage with the 2 others.
If your ever in Havasu with your DCB look me up!
