[QUOTE="Billinthedesert, post: 501129, member: 23839"] Reminds me of a Studebaker that was on Craigslist in Southern Oregon about 10 years ago. It was the first I had heard that they even got into the boatbuilding business, and it seems that the Web searching I did taught me that a number of American manufacturers were left at the end of World War II with a lot of aircraft-grade aluminum and the capacity to shape it and rivet it, Studebaker being among them. Building fishing and utility boats was a sensible option. I remember calling and asking about the boat and being tempted to go look at it, but the photos suggested it was kind of an overbuilt beast. I wonder what became of it. [/QUOTE]
