This is what is at the end of most 'hot' leads you get about vintage timber speed boats. All you can do is pick through the bones and save what you can!

Marylou was constructed in Port Adelaide in 1931 and she is made out of Honduras Mahogany, a rare timber that was banned from being cut years ago, so its worth a bit just for the timber. I was told she was a regular on the Port river with the Adelaide speed boat club at Snowdens Beach. I have had this boat for years and 'want to restore it some day'. Originally Im told, it ran a Rugby 4 cyl motor, then a 'new' Ford V8 and after 2nd world war, the owner obtained a bigger, Army surplus, brand new Cadillac side valve V8 from Sven Kallins (old Adelaide people will recognise that name). The boat was fitted up and raced in and around the south east of S.A. and Western VIC. on lake Charligrark etc. The then owner used to tow it with an Austin A90! The motor is still as new and has done vertually no work from new as there were skeg,shaft and propeller issues and was boat was seldom used.
