Classic Australian Wooden Power Boat Association

I'm sure I've seen this boat elsewhere on the site before. Looks like a good thing

Looks to be Lewis inspired? Anyone know what/who built it exactly?

What a pearla! The boat has been around a bit. It is a Walker hull.

Keith, you might like to elaborate some more.

I will have to get access to my old computer but briefly this boat was built by Walker in Heyfield Victoria - the same person that built and owned the originl Stampede thunder boat. It originally ran a side valve dodge and was called Joey? but was later restored by Frechville in Paynesville. The motor was fitted by another owner in Sth Melbourne and after lack of use was purchased by me and renamed Pearl Necklace. I soldit as my health was deteriorating and I couldnt do the right thing by the boat. i had the trailer custom built by Trubody Industries in Wodonga and it was an absolutely magnificent piece of craftsmanship.
