    New regulations sought after three-boat Florida crash

    Y'know, I like the EB "trade only" news Bot... but it's not something I'd register for. Furthermore if i am interested in the headline, I can just Google it and get the info elsewhere.

    1973 Sutphen Sport Pacer

    It's always great if you can do the work Yourself. 2k was a good price for what you have. I don't think its going to be on the list of collectable boats but, it certainly is an the list of very cool boats. Remember my comments were directed at a proper OE type restoration. With that in mind...

    1973 Sutphen Sport Pacer

    Okay, I didn't read this was a jet boat... It is probably worth a bit less than stated above and downgraded again if it's a lake boat vs. a Sutphen that can handle bigger water.

    1973 Sutphen Sport Pacer

    Tough call. the easy answer is it's worth what someone will pay. That's just not easy to judge. The Sutphen is a cool boat but, you need a real performance guy to know what it is. The simple truth is that when you restore a boat (if you do it right) you will never get out near what it cost...

    VIDEO: Three-boat crash kills four in Florida

    We were out on the water for the Dominion Day fireworks... I can tell you when we left the bay (last in-first out) guys were really on the throttle. My buddy was driving a 23' Cobalt and we were passed at high speed several times. When you looked behind us... well, I've seen less red & Green on...

    VIDEO: Three-boat crash kills four in Florida

    So very sad and very avoidable. This exact situation could happen locally here at the Walkers Point, Canada Day fireworks in Muskoka.

    What a weekend!

    We dropped the boat in the water Friday to attend our first ever Poker Run. This was with the ACBS Toronto and 11 boats (of 16 entered) showed up for the 10AM start. I had never done one of these before so, I hung back at the start.... but, I didn't like bouncing through the wakes of all...

    VIDEO: Mercury Marine debuts four new engines

    I suppose it will depend on IF GM wants to stay in the marine engine business. Can they afford to drop this business? can they afford to keep it? What about over the long term? Maybe there will be new options arising from this? I'm a MERC guy, and personally I feel Merc is overpriced , and has...

    My boat featured

    This is very cool.... My Greavette is featured in the summer 2014 edition of Classic boat magazine. This is the ACBS Toronto members magazine. It is also distributed at the annual Gravenhurst boat show. (This year being held on July 5th) This works well as it will be the first time my boat has...

    VIDEO: Mercury Marine debuts four new engines

    I'm sure it'll be a Loooooooooong time before I accept this new Mercruiser sterndrive engine (and I'm a Merc guy). The higher acquisition costs combined with the exclusivity of parts distribution would create us as slaves to Brunswick, held hostage by their high pricing strategies. Then...

    A really fun day touring Balsam Lake = 18 Antique and classic boats including 5 Greavette's, 4 Shepherds, a couple of Grews, Lakefield, Peterborough, Sidewinder, J-craft and an 18' hydroplane... She was a little bouncy at the start but, the winds calmed and the sun came out to dry our...
