But there are seven days left. $475.00 is my ceiling. I am not anticipating a win! Neat package though. Neil Check this box to be notified of replies to this topic.

Chuck in Cincinnati Offline Gold Boarder Posts: 967 Karma: 46 Thank you received: 43	Neil, I hope you win it. The only part that you have to worry about is the last minute of the auction. I've lost a bunch of stuff that way. I don't play the nickel and dime bidding. I put my max bid in, and if I win I win ? If not, I move on. sweet boat though !

There is another one in North Idaho. It is stripped but comes with all the parts Including the original Merc 78 The owner is asking $900. He keeps putting it in the Spokane Craigslist but misspells the name as i think Dibilt or something similar. I thought I had a deal but he got flaky so I bought another. I Think I still have his contact info if interested.

He brought it by the house to show me and picked up an Evinrude Lark 40 from meat the same timer. Yom Check this box to be notified of replies to this topic.

Hi Jill, can you provide any further details about your great uncle's company? Did he have a company and where was it located? Is it known how many were built? Was there any connection to Hydroglass of San Pedro, California? These were very similar boats to the Del-Bilts.
