Looking for Nitro

Postby danielle » 22 Aug 2017, 22:08

Hello everyone,
I'm just curious to know if anyone knows if the boat in the attached photos is still around. My father built it in the early 1960's in his shed in Whitebridge, NSW. He then sold it in order to buy my mum an engagement ring in 1964, they married in 1965. Dad saw the boat being towed in the Newcastle area in 2006 and was too shy to make himself known to the owner. We thought the owner would have loved to have met the man that built the boat! Dad has since passed away and we are just curious if its still around. We'd love to see it again. Any information would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Danielle

Hi Danielle, looks like your Dad did a fantastic job and if "Nitro" survived to 2006 then I would've thought there's a good chance she's still around.
Good luck.
